Tick Tocking

Do you hear the ticking
Tocking in your head ringing 
As your time passes slowly
Close your eyes so very tightly

Does it make you cringe
A multitude in an unsightly binge
Was it what you deserved
That for you has been reserved

For to leave now before it’s finished
Means your take will be diminished 
So take it as it comes
For you it will not be undone.
