The Stopping Clock

Tick toc tick toc a metronome 
always the same
but the clock does and will stop
locked time itself somehow against itself
the gravity of a moment so important
emotion and love forcing holding the pendulum back
time lost to time but given back in future years
unforgotten a beautiful treasured memory
