I'll give you no background to it, some of that may be obvious.A Footprint in the SandThe tide rolls up the beachLike saltiness of tearsHis jigsawed heart lies scatteredI’m sure you’ll hear the cheersPieces sink into the sandNo use to search aboutSome have gone and gone foreverVictims of a total routHis heartstrings taut and twangyLike some badly tuned guitarPlaying a tearful sad lamentThat’s heard for near and farLove’s clearly not so simpleAs all the stories tellThere’s a costly price to payAnd goes from Heaven into HellWill they ever walk together?To sunset, hand in handHis prayers, they could be answeredTheir footprints in the sand?For now, the pain cuts deepLike paper, his heart it tearsLike a slashing knife it feelsSo what? You ask, who cares?The silent answer tellsHis heart, you’re on your ownThis love so unrequitedBrings pain he’s never knownBut life it must go onAnd on and on and onThe years are short and countingAnd soon time will be goneBut will one day that dreamCome true and be so realThe dream that keeps him goingAnother hand to dealThey’ve dealt him Spades againThe Ace is in his handThe sands of time are goneLike dust upon the landThe clock is striking twelveHe hears a voice a-callingHe knows there’s no time leftThe seconds are still fallingThere is no extra timeNo replay, no marching bandThe whistle’s blows, it’s over!And leaves a footprint in the sand Reply to this Article

oldbiker is verified as being by the original poster of the question Apologies for the presentation of this, it looked so much better (easier to read) in Word before it was uploaded.
The title is 'A Footprint In The Sand' and each verse is 4 lines long, rather than the jumble it came out as.
