Human Clock

Thoughts In Time

'Human Clock'

 

Tick tock-

The human

Robot-

What a 

Lot of

Time we

Think we've

Got-

Not realising

How the

Repetitions

Of life

Drains the

Life out

Of our 

Veins-

Like a machine

We

Exist-

Motionless

To the turning

Of times

Hands-

Distant

From Gods

Plan-

 

Controlled

Without

Letting go-

To this

Illusion

Full of

Confusion-

 

Finding

A place

In time-

Reflecting

Inner

Yearning-

But not

Discerning

The

Truth

Lost

Along with

Youth-

 

When the

Seconds of time,

Play with

Your mind-

What was 

There to find-

In this

Motionless

Time-

 

The clock

Didn't stop-

And the

Mind

Overwound

Without closure-

To the

Exposure

Of what

Each second

Did

Hold-

When the

Heart turned

Cold

And the

Life ran

Dry-

So many

Questions

Still remain-

Why?

      ANGELA HERE - Thanks KELLY for another excellent Poem describing LIFE - in a modern databank S ociety ! Love the structure very SER-PENT-INE ! The subject is so so true of 21st C Man & Woman !
