Till It Stops
May 10, 2016
Tick Tick Tick goes the clock
Till it runs to zero for someone, and back up for another
Tap Tap Tap goes our feet
Till the pitter-patter goes silent and we can no longer walk
Squeak Squeak Squeak goes the wheels in our minds
Till they screech to a stop and never return
B-Thump B-Thump B-Thump goes our heart
Till silence interupts it completely
Hello, Good Bye, I love you, goes our voice
Till nothing, not even oxygen goes in and out
Till nothing is left of us, no remains
