Chasing the clockA Poem by Ashley RachelleThis is something I threw together really fast, I use metaphors talking about a relationship that is never ending, on and off, and still not happy.
The ticking
The toc-ing The flipping The flopping Is all I can think of Time keeps running Choices keep changing And I am still waiting The hands on the clock go round and round Wont settle, Wont slow down Put your hands up, we are on a ride One that wont stop, only collides Just choose already! I scream down the hill The coaster flies up Hitting the wind with a chill You're on one coaster And I another Our paths are different But still together Same ride Same ending Different cars And times The path is laying in front But you control How fast, Which way Is what you hold The keeper is you Of this confusion Time to choose Real or illusion I can't wait anymore The rides come to a stop The clock still mocks me With a tick and a toc
