Time Doesn’t Stop
A shattered clock face concealing
The time you need to know.
It is broken, though
you continue
To hear the constant
Tick
Tock
And it eats away at you mind
Until the fact that the time is there
But you just can’t see it
Drives you crazy,
So you fix the watch face
And see that time continues
To pass. Nothing
Special happened when
It broke, or when it
Was fixed,
It was just the glorious ignorance
that made you want to
Know so bad what was
Happening behind
That shattered glass screen
That was broken when
It fell from your wrist just
as you were trying to
Secure it.
Life is funny that way,
When we secure things,
They end up shattered,
When we fix them,
We wish we could go back
To when they were
Broken and we were
Oblivious to the
Normalcy going on
Beneath the surface.
