The Watchmaker

The watchmaker takes time to perfect his craft
He begins with a desire
One to learn and to feed off of for motivation 
One he can use to seek out inspiration 

He can find inspiration in the finer things 
And in the fine details of the lesser things 
Every aspect of his life ignites a fire within that pushes him 
One that pushes him to move forward 

He moves forward through criticism and hate
Through the non believers and the misinformed 
And he moves forward through time 
He learns that life is always moving

The hands of time are now his to manipulate 
He can set things how he likes 
But whether the hands move or not 
Time keeps going
