Hourglass

DALL-E an image of voices, their whispers fill sand in an hourglass

My eyes traveled down the hourglass.

I’ll figure out how to go to the future.

I whispered.

Please listen to me.

I’ll walk next to you.

You’ll hold my hand.

I’ll hold your hand.

I’ll kiss you.

You’ll kiss me.

I’ll cross my fingers too!

You’ll cross your fingers.

We’ll pray together.

We’ll cry together.

We’ll marry each other.

You whispered.

Please listen to me.

I’ve figured out how to travel to the past.

My eyes traveled up the hourglass.
