Ticking Clock
Time.
How funny,
That all the years we are alive,
We chase it for more.
Tick tock
More time to spend with loved ones,
More time to revise,
Tick tock
Oh, how life will be different, if we only have more time.
It doesn’t wait for us to catch up,
Let our legs rest, let us hug them for the last time.
Tick tock
No, it’s selfish, cruel.
It tries to teach us a lesson, but we only catch up before it’s too late.
Tick tock
Time is the centre of our life,
It drags us to the clouds whenever they feel like it. We never return after that.
Tick tock
Spending so much time, wanting more time,
Makes us forget what our purpose is,
Why we have been granted life,
To use this time wisely.
Tick tock
As the clock will stop suddenly,
When it’s time to go.
