The loud thud of the motion marked the passage of time.
The minute hand moved one step closer.
I didn’t want this to end.
Another minute gone.
My breathing slowed.
The seconds ticked.
My heart raced.
Everything now
and yet…
Nothing.
Goodbye.

It’s really thoughtful how the poem’s line length matched the narrator’s energy. I wouldn’t have thought of that.

I like how you shaped it to trickle down to the end as the words themselves did.
