Time's Up
July 30, 2013
There's a little clock inside my head
Tick-tick tocking until the end
And here he sits by my side
Not alone
But not mine
There he sits
And all I do is lie
Wanting him to stay
He's my love,
My heart,
My mind on rainy days
He makes me calm when I'm mad
He brings me up when I'm sad
Sometimes he wants me to stay
And other times to go
Sometimes I'm his
And other times I'm alone
He calls me family
Is that all I am to him?
All I wish is for him to be mine
Lungs give out
Tears I dry
A smile I share
A heart I hide
