Fifteen hours left to freedom
No idea how many minutes there are
But they're ticking away too slowly
Too slow, too far
Time is keeping me here
Stuck in this invincible cell
But I will just wait out time
And all will be well
One more hour left
Sixty minutes to go
Reliving the sweet memories
I always used to know

For some reason I always think of the The Green Mile when I read this-this poem wasn't written for that, but it fits pretty well
