Clocks Mock

 

I’m just sitting here and wondering when I can go.

The clock is mocking me laughingly as I wait impatiently.

Why does it have to be so hard to get along?

Why does my happiness bring you down ?

 

I don’t want to fight, but it always ends up that way.

I try to be rational; it doesn’t matter.

I just want to cry but the tears, they won’t come out.

Constantly worrying about you about; I fill myself with doubt.

 

I constantly try to riddle this one out but I know I can’t keep ignoring it.

I know what’s to come. I know you’re scared, but so am I.

 

Time can be cruel.

Time ticks on, even when we’re gone.

The clock laughs while mocking me , mocking us.

We don’t have much time left…

 

I’m just sitting here, impatiently wondering where I can go.

I’m looking continously, constantly for a new place.

Only to find, there’s no where to go.

I don’t want to run to anyone else; they have their own situations.

 

I you this …

we don’t need it.

The fighting, the anger, haven’t we got enough to worry about ?

 

I know you think I’m always running away.

What else can I do when I’m being pushed aside?

There’s no winner here.

 

Game over; I quit….

I chose this car to go with this poem because the car show the effects of time.. It’s rusted and broken; the car represents how we all eventually age.. Nothing lasts forever. Time can betray us all if we let it manipulate us. Spend time with everyone you can 🙂 We will all meet in heaven again but while on Earth, we should try to make our lives as meaningful as possible…..
