Did I hear the words correct?
Is it what I thought?
Something about the other tests,
and the time I've got?
Did he just, with so few words,
tear my world apart?
Drop me to my knees to pray...
pierce me like a dart?
Hourglass is now glued tight
to the tabletop.
No way we can flip it now
or try to make it stop.
"Get your ducks in rows" he says.
At least thats what I heard.
Malignancies so hard to say,
for such a simple
word.
