the pendulum swings
the stairs creak
with ideas and images
motions that speak
inner turmoil
outer view
secrets kept
and told to you
hush hush
say no more
a quick farewell
and nothing more

ticking of the clock
time ~whirls~ by
like a jackal on speed
a month ago was just
yesterday
now today is tomorrow
the day that never comes
as the door slips shut -
anon
In a list
Please tell me what you think

I love this stanza most of all! You never know how much turmoil others hold inside just by looking at them. Nice description of time slipping away.

This is interesting. Kind of like speaking of the cycle of life and the limited time involved with it.
