Hourglass
By deathndismay
Hourglass, soon to pass, the hour of demise.
Come to pass, looking
back, while bleeding through the eyes.
Hourglass, so fast to lapse,
taking what is mine.
Sands of time, now relapse, the grain is so divine.
Hourglass, take away, all that has been given.
Seasons pass, break
in vain, remaining unforgiven.
Hourglass, the pendulum, is swaying
like a scythe.
You shall burn away from me the essence of my life.
Hourglass, upon the stand, your sands shall melt away.
Hanging from
the tree of life, by rope I die this day.

Very poignant and well postulated. The eye bleeding sounds like hemhorrhagic fever maybe, but then you'd be in no mood to write. Seriously, this was darkly despairing - cheers!
