60 seconds in a minute

A never ending cycle

Time never ends

Why are there 24 hours in a day but only 12 on a clock

Why is it perfect like the moon

The lines sing with every passing second

It's a reminder that time waits for no one

Make the most of it they say

I'm trying, but it seems to have slipped away from my fingers

Like the quicksand of an hourglass
