Sharing

There are many things
I have put aside
in my life... dreams
that could never be
reality... gone
a gentle touch long ago
left behind... but not forgotten
somehow it doesn't matter
I once had... love
that counts...
not everyone is lucky enough
to find something so special
to care as much
and to build sandcastles
in their minds...
true they are washed away
but they once were there
that reality...
is still there... undenied
and to share
all that I am with others
for only by sharing
do we grow...
I realize some things
will never again be
but I can still give you
love... to share
this greatest gift
I give...
