I'm cross-legged on a sandy floor encircled by a seamless wall of glass.
The future lies beneath me and clouds above cast shadows of my past.
The sand beneath is spiraling down and with each grain a speck of time.
Lost in my complacency until I slip through the hourglass that's mine.
Your despondent eyes are watching me while my world is turned upside down.
Then the sands of time come pouring down and bury me in the ground.
