Tik tok
Tic toc
J'attends, j'attends et j'attends
Les heures passent lentement
Tik tok
Tic toc
Basta et assez
Y'en a marre
Already
Hasten et vite vite
Basta et allez
J'en ai marre
Already
D'attendre, attendre et attendre
Les tics tocs
Et les tiks toks

*Que les tics toquent already
A little something I wrote mostly in french and that I surprisingly like

Cry
Water fall from the waterfall as fast as my tear drops
Pain like a lion's roar
Heart cold as ice hard as stone
Time tiks like a beat in my empty heart
So cry cry cry till no more

Goodnight, Sunrise
I sit and ponder of time,
The frequent echoing tiks and toks that rings 'though each unique.
The rude awakenings in love disguised as hate.
Your perfect strength to warm up the coldest days.
Your love expressed in many ways.

A tree with so much to give,
Not just the the food we eat but the care we need.
With disregard to time and how it shifts,
Our eyes be blind but our hearts will see.
Today's night allows for tomorrow's day.

You are the Sunrise that our hearts will see,
You are the Sunrise that our skin will feel,
You are the Sunrise in our minds you remain,
And 'though tonight seems unfair, tomorrow your light will bring care.
A poem about a breadwinner, a father, a loved one, a partner, a brother, an uncle, a grandfather and an angel on earth lost.

you
make
my heart
stop


like the cars in the city when the red light pops,

like when the batteries inside a clock is dead
then
the tiks&toks just wont tik and tok

like how the sun stops shining when
the moon starts to rise

like how you told me to stop because
i ain't enough

Tik tok tik tok
In hell i sit staring at a clock
Chained to the floor by 2 ton rocks

In this hell i am in there is a clock
An ordinary grandfather clock
In this realm of darkness the only thing i hear is it tiks and toks
My retribution for my sins
Thousands of years will pass
The world will end
And i will still be here
tik
tok
Tik
Tok
Death was to kind a punishment
I sit here in complete darkness accompanied by only this clock
I cannot even hear my own screams
I plead
Plead
Plead
But no one will ever hear me
Satan himself grew tired of tormenting me throughout the years
I sit here unable to rot
Unable to die
Please someone
SOMEONE
SOMEONE PLEASE
I WANT TO DIE
ALLOW ME TO DIE
THE CLOCK
THE CLOCK
TIK TOK
TIK TOK
THE SOUNDS
THE SOUNDS
THE SOUNDS
I CANT TAKE IT
HELL, THIS IS HELL
MY TORTURED SOUL
TRAPPED IN THIS QUIET COLD HELL
DEATH
DEATH
I STARVE FOR IT LIKE A CHILD ADDICTED TO SUGAR
I CANT DIE
IVE TRIED
I DONT NEED TO BREATHE
I DONT NEED TO EAT
SLEEP
BLINK
THE CLOCK
THE CLOCK IS THE ONLY THING
THE ONLY
REPENTANCE?
WHAT IS SUCH A WORD
A DEMON SUCH AS MYSELF HAS NO HOPE OF FREEDOM
I AM ETERNALLY ******

We zijn overbelast met nieuws,
eigen belang in contrast met views
en clicks en tok en tiks.
Wanneer is er tijd voor niks,
voor in het nu leven?

Hooguit twee van de zeven.
Als er toeval in het spel is.
Anders één of nul dagen met gemis
van overspoelend energieverbruik.

Ons opladen werd in fnuik
gezet, in vluchtersduik gewed
dat productiviteit maal vier
kon gaan als we stopten met pootje baden.

Nu zijn we bijna allemaal fier
alsook volledig overladen.
We hebben het doel bereikt, jeej.

— The End —
