The Ticking- based on the short story

The face of time
Its eyes of flames
Watching over with an iron gaze

The heartbeat quickens
With the ticking
Washing over existence

Only time can tell
As with all things
When the spell will cease

And when it stops
As do our hearts
We lay down in peace

Author notes
