Tick Tock

i've been watching them with two blind eyes listening to their cries that fall upon my deaf ears i feel their pain through my paralized limbs i am a prisoner in this so called land of the free i walk amongst the dead whom believe their still living i curse my Fathers name in vain outloud while in silence i beg for His forgiveness i hold onto hope and faith knowing it's all i have left i work hand to mouth for a woman that left me long ago they say promise is a comfort to a fool i am the idiot i reminisce on what was and loose focus on what is i am infected with a virus that plagued my common sense time keeps ticking but my life stands still i live by the second because my futures expired
