Time

My eyes are filled with sand
I've emptied out the hour glass
I cannot change what's done
I can't erase the past
But the pain I feel is crushing
The weight it pulls me down
I drag my body forward
Away from the sinking ground
And time it keeps on passing
Not fast enough for me
The sand flows from my eyes
From where tears used to be
Time does not heal my wounds
It reenacts my pain
Dragging me on towards nothing
A cruel and exhausting game
Only the end gives hope
When death can play his card
That moment when time runs out
The silence of a stopped heart
