    Tick Tock the old grandfather clock beckons me to its side.
    It tells me that death is near, that there is nowhere to hide.
    I feel my life slowly wither away.
    On my knees I beg my soul to stay.
    I lie there and breathe my final breath,
    As I welcome the embrace of my old friend death.

    Tell me what you think.

    While a bit depressing I still like it, flows nicely and makes you think :rolleyes:

    Thanks. As an aside, I see that you are the only one with poetry on this forum. This world needs more poets. :)
