Seconds
In a day
Tick-tock
Tick- tock
Time is
Passing
Away

Never ceasing
Always increasing
Moving forward
So much to do and say
Before you call it a day
Life is passing you by
In the blink of an eye
Moving forward
Why is time
So fleeting
So defeating

Five
More
Minutes
If you Please
300 seconds
Allergies
A wind
To create
A sneeze
Relentless

1,000,000 seconds
Translates to be
The inertia of
You and Me

TikTok
Watch
The clock
Time is
Passing by
In the blink
Of an eye
Until we say
Goodbye


Inspired Song
Time in a Bottle , 1972

This has been in my draft poems
for a while
until I got it right
where I want it
