As Time Passes By Poem by Elizabeth Sheaffer

Feeling so lost, alone and let down
Wandering through a world with no sound
No light, no hope, no joy in this place
The passage of time quite clear on this face

Tears running down from a broken heart
Don't have the strength to make a new start
Losing control of my body and mind
All of it comes with the passage of time

Broken body, broken spirit within
Can't seem to pick myself back up again
Alone in this world with growing dread
The passage of time shall soon see me dead
