i am obsessed with time

i am obsessed with time
i jerk of to its ticking sound
it lives in me
but i am too, a part of it

and killing time? oh boy
that is the toughest task of all
slow like honey, burns like hell
but when it’s sweet, you can not tell

i’ve been told about the years and days and months
can’t wrap my head around this concept
with every breath, a burning in my lungs
inhaling time gives me no depth

it is the only living god
the one that we can not outlive
mimicking life and mocking death
i pray to time and pray for it
