Love Poem: Hourglass of Love

Hourglass of Love

Do the sands of time
flow so quickly,
that we must 
compromise
our hearts, 
so as not to be 
alone?

As one bulb empties
into the other,
does our capacity
to love
drain away 
along with it
forever?

If we had 
but one grain
of true love
in our glass,
is that not 
worth a lifetime's
waiting?
