Tapestry Acrostic

The woven fabric of my life for years has only known such strife. An empty pocket with no hope. Put the last knot on the rope. Edging toward the final ledge. Still hoping for a bet to hedge. The clock is ticking loud and clear. Reminding me the time is near. Yet leaves me wondering,who will shed a tear? For Carol's Acrostic contest.
