Time Lost

To know the clock of time ticks 
To know the seconds robbed 
To know life swiftly vanishing
To know all carried away
To know time will not return 
To know juncture in your mind
To know life's span draws nearer
To know your heart becomes clearer


(Accidentally added this poem twice, with a different last line & title. Guess ill just keep it up for now? Maybe you can tell me which end is better? Lol!)

I love this, I wrote a piece called "time" because I just felt like i'm running out of time and yet the time I have spent here on earth so far was just wasted time. Thank you for sharing
