The ticking of the clock
Echoes in the background
Minute by minute passes by
I am there and then I am gone
Lost in another world
No connection to what
I have left behind
Not even sure I still exist
Like I am suspended
Deep in a black hole
Where nothing exists
No sound or light
No hope or love
Just me caught in nothingness
Then the moment passes
The clock ticks again
And I am back in my chair
A little confused
But aware that time has passed
And I always feel like
I’m a little more broken
