Being with you is what makes the gears turn
This heart fully of wheels and cogs
Only feels whole with you
But time apart makes it creak and break
Cobwebs start to form and the inner workings just....
Freeze
They only start up at the sound of your voice
Before then they slowly stop
The ticking I used to hate
Becomes silent
I long for it again
The ticking of my heart
I want you here with me
Rather then across the sea from me
Where I can't be held in your arms
And I can't hear the ticking of your own clockwork heart
