THE FINAL TIME

nephilim56

The ticking clock
Hands that move
In measured time
Youre leaving soon.

Seven years
It seems much more
Soon you step
Outside the door.

A final farewell
So bitter so sweet
Into the arms
Of the waiting street.

The thieves the liars
They lay in wait
Of a woman I loved
You pack with haste.

Eyes which meet
No words to speak
Just final steps
Our fate to meet.

    Short lines like hurried footsteps race this poem to its end. There is a sense of urgency here set by the clock at the begining. Very nicely done
