tick, tick, ticking echoes through
the mind i call my own
so incredibly loud
My pathetic state
my pathetic jokes
my pathetic whining
facade never falling
not being pretty
when i’m crying
undesirably moody
when not trying
heart clenching at every passing
second
Or third
what it was the fourth?
can’t
Remember
can’t feel which one
all i know is the last two were not surprises
and the latest
i barely felt
numb
it’s too much
oh, the pity
my condolences
i’m so sorry
it’s okay
but it’s not
i’m not
nothing is
but it will be
when?
perhaps once the clock
Stops ticking…
