Tick Tock Tick Tock
The sound of the clock
Is all I hear
As time slowly passes by
Tick Tock Tick Tock
Time drags on forever
And I sit here slowly waiting to die
Waiting for the hour glass to run out of sand
Waiting for the ticking to finally stop
As I sit here I wonder
Will time ever stop?
And then it happens
The sand runs out
And the ticking of the clock finally stops
Tick Tock Tick...

I wrote this back in 06/07. I was really depressed around this time and all I could write were depressing or morbid poems. Actually thats what Im good at writing. My old english teacher said that I could be the next Stephen King. Hope you like it :)
