Chiming hourglass soul
dripping sand like instincts
create a doorway
for eyes to see
beyond pride.
Stop the lost
from running.

Yes, “beyond pride”. I had similar thoughts, but didn’t go that route. I’m glad you did.

I particularly like the title. Using “soul” instead of “self” has a real depth to it!

Oh, I like this Brenda. Mostly because you don’t define who is lost, the seer or the seen. Also like the “hourglass soul”.
