Candock

Tick Tock. Tick Tock. I wait. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. You made a promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. Waiting on a promise. A midnight promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting, Wondering, Will you make it to Your midnight promise? Tick Tock. I'm waiting. Standing at the door now. Waiting for the moment; Waiting for you to come for My midnight promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. My heart feels ready now. All it wants is you, So I wait for it-- Wait for you to fulfill The midnight promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. Will you ever come? My heart is fleeting, My head feels dizzy. Am I ready? Ready for it? Our midnight promise? Tick Tock. I'm waiting. Looking out the window, Pushing out the dark curtains of Doubt in my mind. You promised. I'm hoping, waiting. This is My midnight promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. I know that you must be coming, But there is a shadow-- A shadow of doubt and fear. Please come, Come before this shadow Destroys what is good in me And burns the Lover's midnight promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. I'm in a panic mood. Less than a minute left. Won't my friend, My cherished, My hero, Keep his promise? I remember he said he would. He said it was His midnight promise. Tick Tock. I'm waiting. Silent, alone, doubting. The clock has struck. I look out, one last time. Grievance ending as I catch Your starry gaze. I run, Heart pounding, Feet smacking-- suddenly sliding, Falling into a midnight sun, Waiting on a midnight promise.
