Tick, tick, tick

tick, tick tick

It ticked
like a clock
without a tock
in steady rythem
keeping us in line
in time

tick, tick, tick

As the music swell around me
the beautiful sound,
melting, dark chocolate
it fills my ears,
my head,
my heart
My whole self
I struggle to hear the
steady beat
always there

tick, tick, tick
Tick.
