Hourglass

I daydream at the sun

I run from the dark

Confused by the world that my life has thrown at me

It's so unfair, so foreign to me

Everything is gone, taken in a flash

My smile my laughter, drained so fast

Unsure if it's replaceable, can I find it again

Friends are gone, thought they were mine, angry, confused

Not feeling anything but loneliness

Asking out loud, what have I done to you to allow this to happen

I hide from others, I hide in the dark

I hold my hourglass, remembering me then

The times we shared, the memories we made

Music takes me there, I smile, I'm there

I sing along, smiling, wishing I did not have to return

To the world that detests me, to the world so unfair

Music is my only friend now

I climb inside, watching, listening, singing along

Oh, those times, they were amazing

I hold the hourglass so tight, knuckles go pale

Gripping on so tight

I hold my hourglass, remembering me then

The times we shared, the memories we made

Music takes me there, I smile, I'm there

I sing along, smiling, wishing I did not have to return

To the world that detests me, to the world so unfair

It trembles, it falls

I fall inside gripping on to nothing. Thinking it would pick me up thinking it would ease my pain make me like it was before nothing will ever be the same nothing will ever return. I turn the hourglass on last time watching the sand trickle like the days of my life draining faster

Holding onto hourglass memories
