The Pace of Time
The clock sits, restless.
Tick, tick, tick.
Never still, never silent, never relaxing.
Always moving, working, changing.
Head spinning, numbers changing.
So fast.
No time to hang on to the time- it's already
slipped from your grasp.
Tick, tick, tick.
1...2...3...4...5...
Seconds....minutes....hours.....days......weeks......months....years....
Time never rests, never freezes.
Mistakes are made; but time is unforgiving.
Tick, tick, tick.
Fast. So fast. Too fast.
No slow motion, no pauses, no breaks.
10...11...12...13...14...15...
Tick, tick, tick.
Time moves on, keeping a quick pace.
20...21...22...23...24...25...
Nothing to hang on too, nothing to grip.
Nothing still.
Always moving, changing.
Fast.
Time passes so fast- unless you don't want it to.
Then it ticks by slowly, taking its time.
30........31.......32......33......34.......35.......
Tick, tick, tick.
Time.
