The clock is ticking off the wall
Overhead where you used to lay as I recall
The ticking sound now iritates
It chimes to me of our recent fates
You've gone your way as I must go mine
This time it's solid, no more waste of time
That click clicking of the clock
Just won't do, just millions of reminders all of you
I rush into the den, a book perhaps to find
Anything everything to get you off the mind
Nothing is responding in the way that I would like
My feelings are gone haywire, like little baby kites
Strings interlocking, all into the one
Looks like it's all over, I think that you have won
Every smell a reminder of when you were here
Every picture, I'm embracing, holding you near
But at las the time will come
This I know for sure, The sum
The days will erase your presence
The nights will delete your essence
Won't be long now, that somehow, and someway
This Will just be another story that I will tell one summers' day.
