Tick, Tock, Tick…

Tick, tock, tick..

Relentless....

No pauses or time-outs..

Simply...

Tick, tock, tick....

 
Time an enemy?

You would not think so,

Yet,

Tick, tock, tick...

 
Almost soothing...

Tick, tock, tick....

Predictable...

Reliable...

Law...

Tick, tock, tick...

 
Even as I write this, (Tick)

Time slips away, (Tock)

Even as you read this, (Tock)

You fade away, (!)
