Tick-tock, time is running out in your clock,
Tick-tock, better say your prayers before all is lost.
Tick-tock, look into the mirror, say goodbye.
Tick-tock, I‘ll just watch you fly by.
Tick-tock, everything you’ve done has no value
Tick-tock, nothing but faint memories, another leaf in the bayou
Tick-tock, your time is almost done,
Tick-tock, no legacy, no remembrance, foregone.
Tick-tock, your end measured by the hands of a clock,
Tick-tock, I wish time would speed up with a knock.
Tick-tock, breathe in deep, savor your last,
Tick-tock, because soon, you’ll be nothing but the past.
Tick… Tock…
Tick.....
Tock……..

Poetry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Poetry (from the Latin poeta, a poet) is a form of literary art in which language is used for its aesthetic and evocative qualities in addition to, or in lieu of, its apparent meaning. Poetry may be written independently, as discrete poems, or may occur in conjunction with other arts, as in poetic drama, hymns, lyrics, or prose poetry. It is published in dedicated magazines (the longest established being Poetry and Oxford Poetry), individual collections and wider anthologies.
I don't know about you, but I couldn't find the word "rhyme" in that entire paragraph once.
Anyways, I liked it a lot. The theme of not being able to leave a lasting impression on the world before one moves on is one that everyone can connect to. Good job, Wiz.

From WikiPedia
Poetry and discussions of it have a long history. Early attempts to define poetry, such as Aristotle's Poetics, focused on the uses of speech in rhetoric, drama, song, and comedy.[1] Later attempts concentrated on features such as repetition, verse form and rhyme, and emphasized the aesthetics which distinguish poetry from more objectively informative, prosaic forms of writing, such as manifestos, biographies, essays, and novels .[2] From the mid-20th century, poetry has sometimes been more loosely defined as a fundamental creative act using language.[3]
Poetry often uses particular forms and conventions to suggest alternative meanings in the words, or to evoke emotional or sensual responses. Devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia, and rhythm are sometimes used to achieve musical or incantatory effects. The use of ambiguity, symbolism, irony, and other stylistic elements of poetic diction often leaves a poem open to multiple interpretations. Similarly, metaphor, simile, and metonymy[4] create a resonance between otherwise disparate images—a layering of meanings, forming connections previously not perceived. Kindred forms of resonance may exist, between individual verses, in their patterns of rhyme or rhythm.
Some forms of poetry are specific to particular cultures and genres, responding to the characteristics of the language in which the poet writes. While readers accustomed to identifying poetry with Dante, Goethe, Mickiewicz and Rumi may think of it as being written in lines based upon rhyme and regular meter, there are traditions, such as Biblical poetry, that use other approaches to achieve rhythm and euphony. Much of modern British and American poetry is to some extent a critique of poetic tradition,[5] playing with and testing (among other things) the principle of euphony itself, to the extent that sometimes it deliberately does not rhyme or keep to set rhythms at all.[6][7][8] In today's globalized world poets often borrow styles, techniques and forms from diverse cultures and languages.
