Tick tock.. tick tock..

he knows that time has abandoned him..
But yet, he is here.

for all he knows, he is putting his life on the table..
But yet, he is here.

and yes, he knows life's challenges aren't always that simple..
But yet, he is here.

helpless he feels, for he knows, that time is unforgiving..
But yet, all he can do, is stare blankly at the brick wall.

he closes his eyes to open his ears to his heart..
instead of hearing the all-so-lively lub dub, lub dub..
all he heard, was, tick tock.. tick tock..
