whining, fine dining or gold mining
all to the sound of the clock that’s chiming
Tick Tock
Du doom
Du doom
time is passing now
not soon
are you using it to decay
or to break your cocoon
and fly away?

This is stunningly beautiful Kayleigh! So motivating! I really love the message - Well Done!
Gorgeous writing Kayleigh, especially that ending!
Omggggg that question! That hit hard! And it was so deep! I think I'm using it to decay, lol. You always write the most profound things!
This is very moving. I'd like to hope I'm trying to break the cocoon, but it can be pretty darn tough!
Excellent poem and question. I feel I am but having trouble choosing which direction to go. Thank you for the deep thoughts!
