Out of Time
Tears roll down supple skin,
This battle has come at a cost,
Unsure if the result were a win,
All hope once prevalent now lost.
Cast aside was my affliction,
I was forever destined to fail,
Never reason for contradiction,
I have created my own black veil.
Father time has cast me aside,
It seems that life will never be grand,
Understanding I am forced to abide,
The hourglass has lost its sand.
