Hourglass
Tick
I often see time falling away from me without my control The way sand slips through your fingertips no matter how hard you try to hold on
Tock
I look at the clocks on my walls and can just see my life flying away from me
As the hours go by
Minutes
Seconds
It’s slowy disappearing
Slowy slipping away from me
Tick
And as the hand makes his way around the circle My anxiety keeps getting faster and faster More intense like never before How do people do this?
Tock
How are people so ok with time flying by?
With their life slowy fading away?
Tick
I don’t want time to go away I don’t want to miss out on my life
Tock
But here I am
Spending my minutes worrying about something I have no control over
Tick
I spend my time worrying Worrying about the fact that I’m worrying It’s a vicious cycle
Tock
Am I my own enemy?
Or is it time that’s betraying me?
