    In Time

    The world was timeless
    a disaray of feelings, and thoughts,and confusion,
    trying to understand the mad,
    I was trapped between the hands of time,
    It all seemed to blend together
    in one endless torment
    that seemed never to cease,
    Reality was lost in time.

    I felt amazed disgust
    as my eyes opened
    but could not comprehend,
    staring into the face of time,
    expressionless and still,
    I was encaged
    in a confusing little dream world
    where time stood motionless
    and pain never stopped,
    Reality was lost in time.

    I desperately searched for some escape
    I tried to scream
    but only silence cried for help,
    black infinity surrounded me,
    suspended in time
    I could not breath,
    The clock tolled my hour of death,
    Reality was lost in time.

    My unvoiced cries screamed out,
    a silent whisper
    in my final breath
    the cold clock watched me
    denying the time to pass.
    Unseeing, it could not see a thing
    Unhearing, it heard nothing
    As my eyes began to close for the last time
    life breathed it's breath of time
    a saving grace pressed time to move,
    Christ saved my life, in time
