The Hourglass of Our Failures

"Failure"
16" x 20" acrylic on canvas panel

The Heart 
stumbles over
intangible failures 
when Life fails 
to yield Happiness

 Yet One's dreams
do not simply collaspe

Instead, 
They fade into the backdrop, 
forgotten paths overshadowed
by restrained tears
leaking always
from every living moment.
