Ticky Tock Ticking

Dripping dropping droplets scattered thoughts so fast.

 Screeching screaming ring of silence on full blast.

 Tippy toppy tapping restless legs of frozen feet.

Cheery chirping chatter circles paced and on repeat

Ticky tocky ticking time consumes another day.

Pinging panging pongs of guilt for reasons none, can say.

 Buzzy buzzing buzzers light headed painful breath

​​​​​Clicky clanking clicking not alive, but not in death.

Sighing silent sirens signal relief of the hopeful night

 Softly soothing solitude that only darkness brings to light

Creepy crawling creatures obscure pressures from tomorrow

Slaying sleepy slippings company well kept by anxieties gripping sorrow
