Where Have I Gone..

P.H.Rose

Where have I gone..

 

Tick tock, tick tock, the hands will keep moving but the bells will now stop.
Open my two blinds and stare into the light,
Not remembering what I'm seeing not believing my sight.
Tick tock, tick tock,the hands will keep moving but the bells will now stop.
Fingers not known, when held on to me tight,
Whispered loving words, but to me there's no sight.
Tick tock, tick tock, the hands will keep moving but the bells will now stop.
Clothes that aren't mine, laid there next to me,
I'm to dress as someone else, will I ever be free.
Tick tock, tick tock, the hands will keep moving but the bells will now stop .
I watch her lips moving, I hear the sound that she makes,
But I don't understand, which verse I should take.
Tick tock, tick tock, the hands will keep moving but the bells will now stop.
Have I been here before, I don't remember this place,
I Watch these cars speeding ,in their street daytime track race.
Tick tock, tick tock, the hands will keep moving but the bells will now stop.
I'm back in this house, but my life battery's low,
What this day's held for me, I cannot see anymore.
Tic tock, tic tock, the hands will
keep moving but the bells will now stop.
Returned to my bed as the light has gone down,
Now I Dream of release in my pyjamas and night gown.
Tic tock, tick tock, the hands will keep moving but the bells will finally stop....

          Oh my but u can write awesomely about it, must be a mild form of the ailment. Great refrain and we share with you in your hard time. Hopefully how u can conjure up such poetic imagery and reflections ought to cheer and solace too. Happy new year.
