Time

I sat on a lonely bench
Slowly chewing on what's left
The clock kept on ticking

The sound of footsteps come and go
Reflections wander here and there
The clock kept on ticking

My feet glided on the grass
My lungs sucked in a breath of air
The clock kept on ticking

Friends came by to say hi
And then they turn to walk away
The clock kept on ticking

The sun shone brightly in my eyes
The wind came by and slapped my face
The clock kept on ticking

Tears and sorrow come and go
Acquaintances stop by and look on
The clock kept on ticking
