Time Immemorial

I feel like I’m drowning.  All those clocks, ticking and ticking and ticking like the beating of my heart day in and day out for eternity, and then just- nothing.  A split second between the start of forever and the end, and how can it be counted anymore?  I’m slipping, I guess.  That’s what time does for you.  In my case, the lack of it.  How am I to know anymore when to live, how to die in this world where minutes, hours, years don’t count anymore?  I guess the sun still works, but how am I to know if it will rise again when something can click off somewhere in the world and then nothing means anything anymore?
