5 seconds... 13 seconds... 25 seconds...

My God Ive never seen a clock move so slowly.
Wasting my time, wasting my short lifeline - ever so slowly wasting away my precious time.

******, let me out! I'm so constricted by these minutes.
Impaled by red second hands, ******* by the hours, hanging from a moment... Or maybe it's just the number 12.
Its so hard to tell from upside down.

Ticking clocks in my mind; never stopping, never changing, never faulting.
The blood starts to rush to my head, vision blurring to black and white, and then, I swear I felt it stop!

...

...39 Seconds... 46 seconds...53 seconds.
