The sands of my time
just slowly slip away
Time just keeps running out
each and every single day
The moments spent with you
memories I shall keep
A special kind of love
and I just can’t sleep
Minutes turn to hours
lost are all my days
I try to do my best
in my unusual ways
The moments spent with you
memories I shall keep
A special kind of love
and I just can’t sleep
Time runs through my head
like tiny grains of soft sands
I held you in my arms
but you fell through my hands
The moments spent with you
memories I shall keep
A special kind of love
and I just can’t sleep

This is a beautiful poem... it sings and exibits a special feeling of love...I love what you did here...
but honestly...it has gone way over the 10 to 50 words as the contest guidelines asked for....I applaud your talent...but if you can fix this...which I really feel it should be left intact...is your decision...
and thank you for this beautiful poem
