As my head fell back into the water,
I was consumed by the overwhelming sound of my pulse.

It was then, I realized;

I have purpose, I have reason.
I have life.

I have a say.

The small minded humor those seeking relief.
It’s all or nothing, with empty decisions.

Spreading smoldered fragments, these ******* lies.
It's quite the disease - the naive listeners.

Hurt and Bias hold our hands.

Glassy eyes staring
Into the depths of you
Tick-tock, tick-tock

Reflecting past times
Tears and smiles collide
Tick- tock, tick- tock

I have found you
And we can’t make up
Our -tick! Minds- tock!

I’m - Tick! Lost - tock!
In who you are and why
Tick! You- tock! cry...

Mark your place in
Time with another
Question- Tick! - Tock!

Why?
