The hourglass we’re living in
Is nearly void of sand.
Each little grain escaping
Against my heart’s demand

An interlude, a brief romance
An affair of heart and mind
A trusting time of give and take
Two lives fleetingly entwined

The beginning, hot and hurried
A middle filled with pleasure
The ending’s still mystery
The journey a gift, a treasure

The numbered days are dwindling
We’ve whiled away the time
Sweet hours, precious minutes,
Each second, spent with you, sublime.

Wonderful write...loved the tempo and rhyme.  It leaves me sad, though, that there can't be more.
