Tick, Tock, Tick
Waiting on the clock
Goes, tick, tock,
Tick, there they go
There off to the finish line
Of the ringing bell
The seconds are being counted,
The minute hand strikes again,
Tick, tock, tick,
Sitting here,
Dossing off, completely,
Tick, tock, tick,
Waiting, thinking,
Breathing, somewhat calmly,
My heart jumps,
Like it is on a simple spring,
Rusty but still has its bounce,
There it goes again,
Tick, tock, tick,
Just keeps going,
Where is that finish line?
Who knows where,
And where they keep it,
We'll find out later,
With or without those
Tick, tock, ticks
