Time…

Time ticks by

So slowly

Without Him

Each second

Feels like a minute

Minutes seem like hours

The fingers

On the clock

Hardly seem to move

Without Him

She’s an empty vessel

Sailing on a rough ocean

Tossed from

Wave to wave

In a never ending cycle of anguish

The thoughts

In her mind

A messy symphony

A cacophony

Of doubts

And heartbreak

As Father Time

Continues to meander

Slowly through the day

Pushing painfully

Towards the darkness

That night time brings

The time where

He appears

In her dreams

Whispering His love

Softly in her ear

As she slips into restless slumber

And the sands of time

Continue to run

Through the hour glass

Slowly…

So painfully…

Slowly…
