the clicks
the clicks
all for the sick
self-satisfaction of another,
unable to make it on their own
without others approval
they’ll lose their will to
fight for their own lives
day after day
time passing faster
as the end draws near.
they’ll be by themselves for the first time
without the satisfaction of the other,
approval from the other
in the end they’ll have only themselves
but they\'ve never explored what its like
to be themselves
so they’ll be in trouble.
they’ve been hollowed out to the core
with a set of glass eyes, plastic face, and pursed lips
where their dignity once lied
and they’ll be empty
of their own life experiences
because they spent their entire lives
neglecting
the one person
who mattered the most.
they did it all for the clicks.
