Falling droplets of my inner tears
saturating wheels as they slowly spin
tinged brown, my hearts rusted gears
the corroding metal that turns within
 
Where minutes pass, can't be saved
as blood is clotting within my veins 
the dial of dying love is engraved 
onto my heart, where time reins 
 
Stopping my pulse, as hands stilled
the vessels of cerise blood drain
while chambers are vastly filled
with tear drops of my unwinding pain
 
Drowning the bearings, you tore apart
I murmur loves ticking sound
sink the key, to my mechanical heart
to never again be so blindly wound.
