Time

time
clock
watch
ticking
seconds
fade
slowly
wearing away
not enough
too much
watch the time pass
one....two....three
seconds 
gone
more to come
seconds turn to minutes
minutes to hours
hours to days
days to weeks
eventually the seconds
you had
are gone
days pass
seconds linger
you rush the time
you hate the wait
soon 
you wonder
where is the time
where'd it go
then you
DIE
now 
where did the 
time 
GO?
