Trapped within the hourglass
She's gasping for air.
Time's running out.
Who will saver her
from this untimely death?
Will it be a lover?
Will it be a friend?
Will they shatter the hourglass?
Or stand by
and watch as fear smothers her?
The girl wakes up from this nightmare.
Tears stream down her face.
Was it just a nightmare?
Or was it a foretelling
of things that will be?
Time is running out.
