Stuck in an hourglass,
Running out of sand,
Like water leaking through the roof,
I see you understand.
I haven't got the slightest clue
No I haven't the faintest idea
Of how much longer we can stay here.
Ticking on a clock
Stuck in the cogs when it stops
Time
Time that we don't have
Passing slowly before our eyes.
Stop talking about the future! They say.
I say, But I have a plan.
They say there isn't time for future plans
Only time for present ones.
I struggle against this, I want to plot it out
I'll be history 100 years from now,
And I need to make my life count.
But oh, now I see
Now I know
All I've got
Is right now.

ŞiirPoems by yours truly. I don't usually stick to strict rhyme-schemes, so my poetry is more lyrical than anything else. I appreciate all reviews and constructive criticism is wonderful!
