Notes About The Poem

Hour Glass

Hour glass drips
Slowly and 
Time goes by like snowflakes
On a cold, cold day

"Time can do so much, my love"
Leaving deep scars within
Are you still mine?

Please don't turn away
Please don't run~stay
"For I need you, my love"

Time slips by my darling, slowly wisps away
Each day that you are gone
I desire your love, I need your love, please stay
All day, today and every day

Hour glass drips
Slowly and 
Time goes by like snowflakes
On a cold, cold day

"Time can do so much, my love"
Leaving deep scars within
"Are you still mine?"

Please don't turn away
Please don't run~stay
"For I need you, I need you today" 

Under the influence of "Unchained Melody" by Elvis Presley

Matthew Anish April 27, 2016 at 5:35 PM That song is memorable - as is our poem. Have you ever heard the version the Righteous brothers did? Peace & Love Matthew Anish Sara Kendrick April 28, 2016 at 6:44 AM I listened to several versions with singing and several instrumental ones..I was familiar with the song from a long time ago but had not really paid that much attention to it even though I could sing a few of the lines..LOL..Sara
