Casing

January 31, 2023
By Anonymous

Tick, tick, tick

Rushing through the building

something to find

something to save


Click, click, click

A cruel joke, A cruel game

A life in an addict's hands

Crumbles to dust 



Tick, tick, tick

Acceptance was never an option

A thread holding two seaming opposites together

Each just as frayed as the other


Click

Blood pools


Drip

Tears fall



A cruel joke, A cruel game

An endless duel

Only losers


Drip

Door stays closed

Better not look
