Hourglass

It never stops
It only goes
Pain doesn't cease
It only grows
It always moves
While no one knows

It doesn't matter when it's here
The sand will always disappear

As time keeps going
So does the sand
It falls through the glass
and out of my hand

Never seen again
As it continues to fall
Once empty, I'm turned
Hourglass and all
