Time About to Snap

Time is passing you by
Like so many cars on a busy highway.

Life is hanging by a thread
Like a sharp hook on fishing wire.

Time is rushing by
Like so much water in a river.

Life is hanging by a thread
Like so much weight on a chain.

Time is creeping by
Like all the insects beneath your feet.

Life is hanging by a thread
Like a rope above a chair.

Time keeps going.

Life will snap in an instant.
