It's Hard to Sit Still When Life is Passing You by and Death is Right Around the Corner.

Tick-Tock,
Tick-Tock;
The clock is moving and I am sitting;

Still.

Open-Close,
Open-Close;
My eyes are blinking but my stare is blank;

Still.

Left-Right,
Left-Right;
My legs are moving but I am motionless;

Still.

Here-There,
Here-There;
I leave my house but leave my soul at home;

Still.

Tick-Tock;
Open-Close;
Left-Right;
Here-There;
My life continues but I am dying;

Still.

absolutely superb!!!!! reminds me a lot of coal chamber's lyrics, but this is even better. I can relate to your poem so much that it actually hurts. thank you.
