I sit and wait
for the date to strike.

It never comes.

And before I know it,
you’ve left with another.

And when I’m gone,
and you’re alone,
you’ll understand.

Speak my name,
feel my pain,
and the remorse
that flows through me.

You like the time theme, huh? I thought this was sort of vague, but overall it was thought-provoking :)
