My Hour Glass Is Running Out Poem by Bradley Lester

My hour glass is running out each minute of each day
I'm scared to be alone right now, no matter what they say
I just want someone close, to love and hold me tight
Is this too much to ask? I want to see the light
The darkness makes me cold, my empty heart feels sad
My friend called loneliness is here, he tries to make me glad
My hour glass is running out, is this my payback time
For all the things I've done, they see it as a crime
Please help me find my lover, to brighten up my day
To make me feel alright inside, to be with me to stay
