The Wait
December 20, 2009
Just sitting in the room watching, waiting
Tic, Tic, Tic, Tok
Two minutes to go
Tic, Tic, Tic, Tok
Its almost over
Tic, Tic, Tic, Tok
Everythings blocked out and silent
Tic, Tic, Tic, Tok
The bell rings
Its all over.

I really like this poem. It reminds me a lot of how the seconds seem to just slowly tick by during a sports game that goes in over time. I enjoy your reading your pieces of literature. keep up the great work!
