20/F/North Carolina Hi! I'm Sam and I pretty much write sad poetry so enjoy!
Tick Tock goes the clock of wanting to hit the pipe again Tick Tock goes the clock of wanting to be numb again Tick Tock goes the clock of the flame burning against the glass Tick Tock goes the clock of the drug melting away Tick Tock goes the clock of inhaling danger into my lungs Tick Tock goes the clock of exhaling the smoke Tick Tock goes the clock of the high warming my body Tick Tock goes the clock of desperately wanting more Tick Tock goes the clock of crushing more danger Tick Tock goes the clock of rolling the dollar bill Tick Tock goes the clock of snorting away my problems Tick Tock goes the clock of a rush of euphoria Tick Tock goes the clock of redoing everything again Tick Tock goes the clock of coming down again Tick Tock goes the clock of endless sleepless nights Tick Tock goes the clock of hearing my mother and father cry Tick Tock goes the clock of the haunting silence in my room Tick Tock goes the clock of my heart beating inside my chest Tick Tock goes the clock of picking up the pen Tick Tock goes the clock of the tear hitting the paper Tick Tock goes the clock of wanting to be numb again Tick Tock goes the clock of the trembling hands Tick Tock goes the clock of folding the paper Tick Tock goes the clock of whispering one last goodbye Tick Tock goes the clock of me hanging in the belltower

Tick Tock
He looked at her like no other Whenever he saw her he smiled A real smile, not a fake one But she would never smile back He saw the scars on her pale soft skin He didn’t bother to ask what happened He just assumed it was the cat Her eyes were as blue as the sea Her lips as pink as a rose Her clothes practically hugging her body She was simply beautiful But one day she didn’t come to class He was worried as she always came to class He looked everywhere for the beautiful girl He soon began to lose hope as she never came back Everyone else had forgotten about her But one night he found her Hanging from a willow tree
