The Unstoppable Clock
By A.T.Myrie
The day is long, so is time
Waiting for no man
It selfishly ticks on by
Oblivious to screams ‘to wait’, ‘to stop’
Scoffing, ‘who can stop Time?’
I am the unstoppable clock
I care not, that you’ve just met
I care not, that you’re late for an important test
I do as I please, when I please
Cause I am the orchestrator of your fate
Respect me and I’ll give you your dew
Act like a bitch, and I’ll destroy you
Don’t pretend you don’t fear my power
I, the unstoppable clock, controls every
Second, every minute, every hour
I, all knowing, see what I see
Never interfering, just moving fluidly
As decisions are made, fates are changed
I go on as I always do
The unstoppable clock, ticking past you
