Summary: Time ticks away from Quistis.



Life is like an hourglass.

I feel my seconds ticking away, grains of sand falling. Every day is another little spurt of sand, the flow never stops. I lose so many days this way, one bleeding into another, and I know I'm running out of sand. Running out of time.

Sometimes, I can't even bring myself to care. I look inside myself, and sometimes I think I'll be glad when those last grains of sand slip away.

Life is like an hourglass stuck to a table. No matter what you do, you can't go back to the beginning.

You can't hurry the end, either.
