Sliver of Time

Every step leaves tracks in the mud
It’s so quiet everything sounds as a thud
The sky is ominous and dark
Everyone here has their own mark
The sun has begun to rise
It makes me feel so alive
This sunrise is much too strange
It moves so fast and not arranged
It moves to the middle of the sky
I feel I’ve reached my peak, my high
I’m aging I realize, upset
What if the sun soon sets?
The sun moves to set
All I feel is regret
My skin starts to wrinkle and whither
I realize life is nothing more than a sliver
And oh how I did waste my sliver
It flowed by so fast as if a river
Now the moonlight appears
As my old body stands to fears
The moonlight shines down so round
Pointing at my body in the ground
People appear, how infernal!
Then I realize I stand at my funeral

| That is a very intense poem. Very good imagery with words. A ghost at their own funeral, wow. I mean what if that really does happen? Your poem really gets me thinking of the possibilities. |
