Tick tick tick

The time races by.

I will it to stop,

Slow down at least.

"Please"

I pray,

"Just slow down-

Just for a minute"

Tick tick tick tick

Time smiles cruely in my face

Tick tick tick tick tick

It speeds up.

Before I know it..

Tick tick tick tick tick tick

It's 9.

Now,

I am alone.

I do what I can to make the time pass

I try to wake up but sleep whispers.

Stay. Everything can wait.

I try to resist her siren song.

Sh, sh, sh.

I fall asleep again.

Tick tick tick tick

Time passes fast and suddely it's almost 9 AM.

I jump up!

I'm late! He's waiting!

Time taunts me more.

Tick tick tick tick tick

I rush.

Tick tick tick tick tick tick

"You're late." Time purs as it speeds up.

Tick tick tick tick tick tick tick

The day goes too fast when I talk to him.

But time tortures me by slowing down when I miss him.
