Countdown

ba-dump (tick)... ba-dump (tack)

. . .

Every beat of our hearts
Will tell us that we are just
Another piece of an art

And each is with an hourglass
Without knowing when the sands will last

I like how you compared the beat of our hearts with the hourglass

Thank you! Well, that was just a sudden realization though. A sudden inspiration...

The physical being is indeed, another piece of art (but a very sophisticated one). As such, it has an expiration date, but as stated here in the apt symbol of the hourglass, one which is unknown. Thus it would behoove all of us creations to look inward to find out if the container is all there is.

Yeah and but I'm not ready to find that out. Maybe I'm a little scared of what my future would become.
