Time's Running Out Poem by Melynda Smith

Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick......
You're too laste. My time's almost over.
I can hear the church bells ringing,
They're so loud and clean.
Ding-Dong. Ding-dong. Ding-dong.
Can't you hear them? Ringing loud and clear?
I know time's running out.
No one can avoid it, even if they try their hardest.
I wonder why the bells are ringing....
I wonder, wonder if it's a wedding, a service maybe?
Or could it be....a funeral?
Tick, tick, tick, tick, tick, tick.......
Why is it so quiet in here?
All I can here is my heart slowly beating. Hardly there.
The slow ticking of the clock going tick, tick, tick....
And the bells, ringing loudly going ding-dong, ding-dong.....
Time has run out,
The clock stopped ticking.
My heart has stopped beating.
But, the bells keep ringing.
Louder now.
Din-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong.....
Heh, I guess it's time.
Time has run.
Time has run out.
Time has run out for me.
My eyes slowly close.
I stop breathing.
My heart isn't beating anymore.
I am no more.
So good-bye.
I'll see you when the bells ring it's loudest.
And this is all because,
All because my Time Has Run Out.
