seconds

The clock ticks
So slowly
The tick of the motor
Tick tick

Watchin waiting
As time goes bye
One minute gone
Then five
And then a hour

Time ticks bye
Day turns to night
Twenty four hours gon bye
Days become months

Months become years
Years to decades

Old I will be
My time now used up

Beautiful poem, Wayne. It is very sad, and it's a good reminder. As sad as it is, though, I really enjoy reading it.
