the sound of the clock makes me think
of the times when I was with you
and you were with me
holding my hands
making plans
that seemed so far away
you threw me away so quickly
making my heart stop for that moment
when I thought that the world
had come to an end
though as soon as I had gotten
used to the world not spinning
you creep up on me
like time
the clock ticks louder now as
you let dreams of us slip
out of your mouth to my ears
igniting all my fears
as you kiss my lips one more time
before we part once again
knowing that everything has changed
as you try to be in my life
again
it never ends
the battle my heart has with the
love of you
because you were everything that I
thought I wanted
but
my fragile
my confused mind wants nothing
anymore because you made
happiness seem like it could never happen
when you shattered me into a
million pieces
so
I watch as the second hand goes just
a little faster
walking away from you to be alone
once again in the open forest
of my thoughts
as time passes me by ...
