It has not hit me yet. My heart, the clock, beats constant, unchanging. Tick tick tick tick. Just a shot, just a pinch opening up my insides to the world. Letting my most sacred belongings be seen by this earth. One little pinch and then the blood gets ****** out. ****** out of me as if a bloodthirsty animal has a straw. The clock is breaking, its ticking inconsistent. No more tick ticks. The little hands of the clock are scampering around trying to find their original rhythm. Is is proving impossible. Run hands, run! Find that rhythm you so strive for! Nope, it is gone, now the clock is unhinging. The hands are falling off, the numbers spinning out of control. Nope, this clock is too far gone to be fixed. Nope, this heart beats too fast, no magic tricks. Nope, she can not be saved, let's find a new clock to fix.

Scared
It has not hit me yet. My heart, the clock, beats constant, unchanging. Tick tick tick tick. Just a shot, just a pinch opening up my insides to the world. Letting my most sacred belongings be seen by this earth. One little pinch and then the blood gets ****** out. ****** out of me as if a bloodthirsty animal has a straw. The clock is breaking, its ticking inconsistent. No more tick ticks. The little hands of the clock are scampering around trying to find their original rhythm. Is is proving impossible. Run hands, run! Find that rhythm you so strive for! Nope, it is gone, now the clock is unhinging. The hands are falling off, the numbers spinning out of control. Nope, this clock is too far gone to be fixed. Nope, this heart beats too fast, no magic tricks. Nope, she can not be saved, let's find a new clock to fix.
