Mechanical heart

Falling droplets of my inner tears

 

saturating wheels as they slowly spin

 

tinged brown, my hearts rusted gears

 

the corroding metal that turns within

 

 

 

Where minutes pass, can't be saved

 

as blood is clotting within my veins

 

the dial of dying love is engraved

 

onto my heart, where time reigns

 

 

 

Stopping my pulse, as hands stilled

 

the vessels of cerise blood drain

 

while chambers are vastly filled

 

with tear drops of my unwinding pain

 

 

 

Drowning the bearings, you tore apart

 

I murmur loves ticking sound

 

sink the key, to my mechanical heart

 

to never again be so blindly wound.

Done
