Tick Tock

Reality

Tick Tock
goes the clock
it ticks
the hours
away.
Tick Tock
time is locked
with death
our life
we pay.

Thanks guys. "The time is locked" here means that no matter what we do... we can't stop time... it's locked on to keep on ticking... then death comes and with our life we will pay and then the clock stops for us.

Ah but my clock has been stopped, the hands bound by the only one with the strength to stop them forever. I liked the write for a brief piece it drew me in pretty well.

Some clocks goes on forever. Some are just a gentle breezes and memories in time. I learn not to worry about time. Worry about spending time with friends and family. Death will come. What we do in the middle is what matters. Thank you for a excellent poem.
