Mindlessly Watching
Mindlessly watching as the clock ticks by,
Oh, how the minutes they start to fly.
Mindlessly playing alone, by the hour
And the company I kept was quite sour..
Teenage years (sadly) taking over now,
And once long friends; memories dying down.
They call me names, and laugh, and stare.
Mindlessly watching and acting like I didn't care.
Adultery hits and it’s been a decade,
and the love I don’t have I start to crave.
Mindlessly, I wait for the one to sweep me off my feet.
Well, he came but he knocked me on my knees.
I am down for the count, I lost my guard.
I trusted him and he took it too far.
Mindlessly, I have seemed to drop on my knees.
My mind goes blank and there is nothing that I see.
Mindlessly watching as the clock strikes 12.
