floating down a river...

Tick. Tock.
The minutes go by.
Counting,
D
O
W
N.
To our final hour.

This silence:
A fatal poison.
Seeping through the cracks,
In the ((airtight)) door.
We breath unknowingly,
Not knowing,
That we are,
Inhaling our own death.

A spoken word:
Destined to be ravaged.
By the toxic still,
In the air.

And the crimson second hand,
Moves slower by the minute.
((Tick. . . .Tock.))

Silence is definately a fatal poison, and you've captured it well here

I'm so cute!

This is the most suspenseful waiting-for-class-to-end poem that I've ever read.  Heh, yeah well... even if it's not about that, that's what I thought of when you mentioned the crimson second hand...

Seriously, Erin, I like this quite a bit.  You're coming a long way in your writing...

Haha. I actually did think this up during class after a test and I was sooo bored and it seemed to go on forever.
