Watchmaker
Somewhere a watch is heard;
Riding the waves as the gears turn.
Echoes within ripples, never ends.
The waves splash, the shore bends.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock..
The freeze of the past, a misty rain.
Forever here to last, memories reign.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock..
Seconds viciously tearing, ripping;
Away at my mind chipping, daring.
To be at a loss, to be frozen.
Between my gums a piece of floss,
Fragile teeth cracking; broken.
Tick-tock, tick-tock..
Condensation icy on its face;
Its hands angry and shaking in place.
Screaming as minutes fade,
Dripping water; ripples made.
Tick-tock..
Life in time - this tomb of mine.
Tick..
