I am intrigued, 

By the sound of your heartbeat.

In sequence with the clock

That hangs on the wall. 


The steady rise and fall, 

Of your chest.

While you curl into a ball

I watch the clock 

That hangs on the wall. 


You sing songs of hope,

As I take long rips, 

Filling myself up with dope.

In rhythm with the clock 

That hangs on the wall. 


Pandering last thoughts, 

I sit alone in my room, crying. 

Over the sound of the clock 

That hangs on the wall. 


Tic, Toc.

I'm at a loss of words. 

And time. 

All I can do is 

Stare at the clock

That still hangs on the wall.
