Waiting

The  clock ticks, I wait.
I am not ticking time,
Time ticks me up. 

“Time is the king of men”
As I stop at a clot of time, 
Growing lost in the present,
As I wait to hear the doctor, my doctor. 
Doctor, over the time — overlaps. 

I wait for the doctor. 
Today, doctor ticks the time. 

I don’t know what will he tell? 
A news will break, 
Will he tell? 
YOU ARE BEYOND,
IT’S TOO LATE. 

Will I then, tick the time?
