Time-Life Children

faces reach across eons
children turn and cry
time swirls, murdering.

hearts reach to lovers
infants going hungry
clocks stop, timeless

brains cease function
kids see parents angry
watches watch the world

death comes to life
children realise the inevitable
time never slows for us

life ceases to exist
children cry from wordless mouths
time speeds nonexistent tears.
