Clock


Does a clock ever want to stop ticking

does it get tired of doing the same

thing every day

over and over agian

repeating a pattern that never ends

with the same numbers

going in cirlces

while nothing changes

dings at twelve o clock

because thats what a clock does

ticking, ticking, ticking

like a person who wants to stop

living.
