Tick, and Clock

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
Over silent wounds the shadow sticks.
Tick tock, the clock just ticks,
And grief like rain in silence drips.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
A fish swims past with paper sticks.
Tick tock, the clock just ticks,
The moon wears shoes and silently flips.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
A whisper lost in time’s cold tricks.
Tick tock, the clock just ticks,
He loved me once, then slipped the mix.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
A purple cloud begins to mix.
Tick tock, the clock just ticks,
The chairs are singing, the lamps just twitch.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
My mother’s hands, now photographs in bricks.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
The echo of her lullaby still ***.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
I drink the air, and time just licks.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
A cat in a hat does somersault tricks.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
Each breath I take, the past constricts.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
I hold his coat; it still inflicts.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
The floor is wet with yellow bricks.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
I chase a rainbow in little bits.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
The empty chair, the coffee’s six.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
My voice alone in crowded flicks.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
A tree starts laughing, then it splits.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
The stars all melt and turn to bricks.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
Love fades like flame on candlesticks.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
Hope’s thread is tied with shattered wicks.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
I dance with clouds, my feet are quick.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
The sun just winks, then takes a dip.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
The soul bends low, the silence kicks.
Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
And I, still write with bleeding clicks.

Tick, tock, the clock just ticks,
A dream just walks, it never sticks.
Tick tock, the clock just ticks,
And in the end, it skips and flicks.

Tick, tock, the clock just clicks,
It ticks and clocks, tocks and clicks,
Tick, tock, click ...
Tock, tick and click...

Tick..

Tock..

Tick.
