Tic-Toc

Tic-Toc

So many day you have been gone.
Letting go of the memories we've made, we could make. 
So many hour I have awaited your return.
Fighting against the demons of hell, for our love.
Very little time to save our love. 
Too many seconds, with time and clocks and never with you. 
Clocks that are broken, like I.
Time that lasts forever, unlike youth. 
The angles who sing to me from the greens and blues of a painted perfect heaven. 
So many things can go wrong without you. 
These clocks in my head stop time on us in love. 
They hardly move and hardly move, until they never move. . . ever again.

Thanks, to all of you. I wrote this poem with a simple thought.. How do I describe a broken love story and a hope to find a fix? I believed in this poem and I thank you all for giving me the best motivation and even more confidence in this write!(:

Very impressed you understood what I was asking for! Please label this Free Verse or Verse it is not an ABC poem & 4th line from the bottom you want ANGELS - just a typo I'm sure! Try and lay the lines out so they look better on the page- I'd put a line break after [like I] & make a few of the longer lines shorter by dropping the end of the line to the next line.
