Nov 2011
Sounds of humanity
Tick tock tick tock
The melody of paint drying on a wall
The soothing sound of a fan humming
I sit and watch
People, places, and interactions
Seeing my self struggling
My mind and body numbing
To actions that need no intellectual background
Losing my mind in motions
Pitter pat pitter pat
The silence of my conscious
Listen to the little voice of doubt, in every thought
Numbed and yet severely angered to an absolute sadness
A hurt a burn and a pain
The only feeling that tantalizes me
Gasp gasp gasp
Stuck crying with furious tears
Dripping salt into my wounds
Gasp, tick, pitter
Losing every single emotion
To a vile of emptiness
Tick tock tick tock
The hum of my heart beating
Mixing with yours
Writing a lullaby
Thatβs words are unknown to either of us
But still cant get it out our minds
Thump thump thump
The number sounds dissipate
Your all I hear
