Clockwork Heart

The heart beats.

The clock ticks.

Sequence in repeat.

Hear every click.

Gears move in motion.

Blood pumped with emotions.

Meaning in every action.

Heart stops consumed by corrosion.

Metal inside my chest keeps me alive.

Even though I failed to survive.

It started moving again when you arrive.

Because of you, I was revived.

Time is running out.

You wanted to be out.

Want to know what this is all about.

You have a good reason to doubt.

Relics are to be forgotten.

Flesh and bones to become rotten.

Leave everything a mystery.

You won’t even remember this misery.
