tick tock

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 ...
