The Fade

Time is sliding through my fingers,

Like sand through an hour glass,

I grasp but can’t stop,

Fading, falling away from me,

Never-ending, never stopping,

Fear grips my soul with icy digits,

I can’t stop the flow,

I can’t slow the flow,

All is fading, all is disappearing,

Who is this old person staring back at me?
