Tick-tock tick-tock
the seconds fly by
the hours pass
with the hand on the clock

Tick-tock tick-tick-tock...
time skips a beat
and I see into the past
I was lost

Tick-tock tick-tock-tock...
time finds it's way back
I see this hour-glass has a crack

Tick-tick-tick-tock...
time is a jumble
i fight my way through
my mind is a jungle

Tick-tock tock-tick...
I see a glimpse
of the future
a vision of whats to come

Tick-tock tick-tock...
I get lost in these dreams
these fantasies of mine
I put into this rhyme

Tick-tock...tick-tock...tick-tock...

Definitely a different poem,
but I like the way it was done.
Flows nicely.
