Write a poem with a structured rhyme scheme, which focuses on the theme of mortality.

Are You Ready

Time is ticking, Though you donโ€™t notice. The sand is falling Through the hourglass It sifts through your fingers Landing in a heap. Your life is being drained, Everyday youโ€™re a little less you. The grim reaper is coming Closer and closer Until heโ€™s standing over you With a scythe in his hand. You open your mouth, Itโ€™s almost time to say goodbye. The reaper lifts his scythe Heโ€™s ready But the question is Are you?
