Twelve Hours of DeathA Poem by Once Loved Now Lost
The clock strikes one, that is when I find you
That is when I hold you That is when I fell in love with you The clock strikes two That is when I smile at you That is when I devote myself to you That is when I decide I can't lose you The clock strikes three That is when you say you love me The clock strikes four That is when you make my heart soar That is when I say, "I love you more." The clock strikes five That is when you start to lie That is when, you think, our love will die The clock strikes six That is when our conversations go into a mix That is when you break my heart, that will never fix The clock strikes seven That is when I contemplate going to Heaven The clock strikes Eight That is when you try to stop me... but it's too late The clock strikes nine That is when you go on with your life, without mine The clock strikes ten That is when we start talking again The clock strikes eleven That is when you fall for him, again The clock strikes twelve That is when I die That is when I say my farewell That is when I tell you, "I love you more than I could ever tell." That is when I part, for either Heaven or Hell. The clock strikes twelve-oh-one That is when I'm gone
