'nowhere Slowly'

all you hear is the clock ticking
and you can't feel your heart beating

time is in a rush to go nowhere slowly
you wonder if you are allowed to go with
 on that rush to nowhere  -  
afraid you might be left behind

Wilma, this is so profound. Last night I could hear the clock ticking below my father's portrait and I wished it was his heart still beating. Time almost seems to stand still when you don't know where to go and are afraid of being left behind. This goes to my faves. Great job, Wilma! Love, Carolyn
