The clock ticks
In reply to my pained heartbeats,
My heart aches,
My mind is restless,
It is not an unknown restlessness,
I know,
My mind knows,
Why we are ensnared by this restlessness,
But, neither do I know,
Nor does my mind know,
How to make my heart know,
How to make it accept its tormented fate,
As my heart continues to flutter in its fitful state,
And shed tears of blood,
While it beats in response to the ticking time...
