Logan Rheinst - Shattered Time

I have no pride,
I searched inside,
I could not find,
my pride in time.

It was too late,
to change my fate.
My self-esteem,
did detonate.

There was one thing,
that I could do.
To gain the time,
I’d otherwise lose.

I took the hourglass,
in my hand,
and shattered it with,
no other plan.

Suddenly,
everything around me stopped.
The flames that were burning,
were not even hot.

I scooped up the sand,
but did not bleed,
from the shards of time,
that cut me so deep.
