Tick, tock, tick, clock, the sound
Time, He has come
He has power - you will see
Forwards, backwards
Eternity is His power
Power? His is eternity
Backwards, forwards
See will you - power has He
Come has He? Time?
Sound the clock - tick, tock,
Tick...

Well, i do  not know if i caught the right message from this poem, but i'll give it a try. I think the poem was steered in a religious direction,"Eternity is his power, tick tock, he has come."  telling people that time for living is winding down. This was a very refreshing poem and i hope that you continue to  inspire others through writing.
