136. HOW DOES ONE TELL?



How does one tell the moon to stand still 
and wait for the sun so that their brilliance enchant the Milky Way?
How does one build a castle of sand upon a beach 
beaten by waves day after day?

How does one reach out for the stars 
and pluck them to brighten the darkest night?
How does one say goodbye to yesterday 
and say hello to tomorrow, when today remains a twilight?

How can we tell someone that some things cannot be changed, 
that the hands of time cannot be turned back?
How does one tell someone that love, 
though so sweet can be painful, and can bring a heartbreak?
