Tick

Do you pray to God? 
Only when in need?
Promising a change 
If He will intercede 
Do you see your soul? 
In the mirror when you look 
What does it reveal? 
Anything you’ve overlooked? 
Do you see the clock? 
As it ticks your time away 
Seconds, minutes, hours 
How heavy does it weigh? 
Do you see the years? 
Like a brushfire that has burned
Laying in smoke and ash 
From a heart that doesn’t yearn
Do you see your life? 
As it passes before your eyes 
Speeding quickly forward 
Where the consequences lie
