Chime
Staring at the clock
upon the wall
Completely oblivious
to it all
The hours follow
the minutes lead
I quietly ask the
clock to speed
Please, I ask,
quicken the pace
Let time progress
upon your face
It will go unnoticed
much like their lives
No one will realize
until it arrives
In this place I can
no longer stay
I wish time would vanish
and fade away
Yet I continue to wish
and proceed to cry
As each day of my life
passes me by
Please, I beg you,
Take back your chimes
Return me to when
I still had time
Yet, like the many years before
that now are gone
The clock does not listen
and time just goes on
