Inescapable Death

Got bored and decided to put up another poem I wrote.
~~Inescapable Death~~
Tick, tock. Tick, tock.
Tick, tock. Tick, tock.
The sound seems ominous
filling my ears.
Echoing in the silence of my thoughts
loudly; deafening.
Tick, tock. Tick, tock.
I feel the weight of it never seeming to cease.
Time so precious to some
and thrown away by others.
Tick, tock. Tick, tock.
Time that will end for everyone some day;
their clock giving its final tick.
Inescapable death.
Tick, tock. Tick, tock.
Time that comes abruptly to a halt without warning
for no one can predict their last breath.
Tick, tock. Tick, tock.
Tick, tock. Tick....
