Passing Through Time

by angiedo

The clock ticks

A girl turns her head

Tick, Tock

Her mother lays in bed

Tick, Tock

Wires lie over their heads

Tick, Tock

She takes a deep breath

Tick, Tock

The blood drips from her mother's neck

Tick, Tock

She closes her eyes 

Tick, Tock

And prays everything is fine

Tick, Tock
