The Timer


Across the street is a large clock
It ticks so loud and gives me a sleepless night
It's not the sound that sends shivers down my spine
Its not the tickling that makes me sleepless
But the timer that goes downward

It leaves a reminder
I hear it whisper through the porous surface
To make hay while the sun shine
Slowly the time beats but in each beat is a passing
Of a day

Only me seems to notice
The youths saw differently
I saw a timer, they saw a clock
But a time would come, when just like me
They'll be awoken by the tickling of the clock.
