No Tick Nor Tock

Watching silent hands Changing time in the darkness No tick nor tock just number changes Illumining the shadows A small window of time My eyes become heavy and weary I nod off for what feels a life time And the clock says NO Day light creeps upon the darkness Birds start the morning ritual Night into day Where did the hours go Watching silent hands No tick nor tock A new day has begun I guess I better get on

I've had nights like that too, I especially like "I nod off for what feels a life time And the clock says NO" Well done

Enjoyed this read, where do the hours go? I have often wondered if the body dies for a time while the spirit explores its own world. Excellent piece.
