What do you think this poem is about?

The Hourglass

The Sands of your time
Gently slide against your hourglass

Time is running out
Better make your life count

The hands of the clock
Always moving

The ticktock
Never ceasing

Each day is lost
You can never gain it back

Time is always continuing
Never frozen

Once that sand
Stops moving

Your gone

Gone until you
Begin again
