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, tied up 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.
