Seconds Pass

Here's another one I was working on while watching the sun come up. Honestly, I just jotted this down. It hasn't been reworked at all. It's rough, but comments are welcome as always.


I watched the world
awaken
much like watching your soul
these past few
months
hours
years
seconds
Who understands the infinite working of time?
What I do understand
is the hell you've created
in your own mind.
I've stood helplessly aside
watching you burn
in flames you could blow out
as easily as birthday candles.
While my edges scorch
I offer you
an hour.
