Tick
Tock 
Tick Tock 
The clock on the wall begins 
The haunting sounds of my memories flood
As the time runs 5 more minutes 
As i sigh from the 
Sleepless night
Deprivation of rest 
Better if it was of memory as the clock plays
The familiar tune 
It begins 
Tick
Tock
Hours gone by 
Wondering can I die yet
Tick tock
1:50 pm
Strides by
A distance shred of sanity
Bellows in the wind
And 1:55 approaches its gone
As the land of memory began
I try not to cry
Yet a river forms upon my desk
Of familiar tears 
The same tears so long ago
As the world bent and broke me
By that first 
Tick tock
