Two Parts of My Mind (and other poems)

Tick Tock

Tick tock goes the clock,

Run around and just can't stop,

Get up, work hard, get no rest,

Seems like life is one huge test.

Tick tock, the hand goes by,

Moves around as time does fly,

Working, working, get no play,

Just try to work hard all today.

Tick tock, the day moves on,

Feels like life is one huge con,

They say that life is joyful, fun,

But all I seem to do is run.

Tick, tock, the dreams fall away

Leave them 'til another day,

This life I lead gives me such strife,

'Tis why I'm starting another life.
