The analog clock is forever stuck at 7 o'clock

The world is as well, since I found the walls may talk

No longer do I hear the old tick,

that prompted me when regret grew thick

When the second hand barred itself,

the timepiece held its breath

Its eyes are weeping, as sorrowful as mine

since it never lost its track of time

My mind still wanders at 7 o'clock:

meandering through fruitless talk

envisioning my dreams as reality

But no more, no more does this mystify me
