How I loathe my little pocket watch
It never fails to persist.
In that annoying little tick tock
While I sit and clench my fists.
How I loathe this stupid pocket watch,
Opposing all my strife
All I want to do is stew
In my cesspool of a life.
Oh for fuck sake little pocket watch
Counting down the seconds
All I have to do is jump
The darkness, it just beckons.
Now, now little pocket watch
I’m fixated on the ground,
This building is so high from here
I no longer heed your sound.
The time is near little pocket watch
And please, do not despair!
For when the breathe has left my body
Your tick tock will still be there.
I’m sorry little pocket watch
My anger is misconstrued
Time is not a healer in my grief
Though I don’t mean to be rude.
Farewell my little pocket watch
On this balcony we shall depart
Maybe one day your stability
Will mend someone else’s heart.
