Penned something for fun the other day, when I was getting all nostalgic.


Smashing Clocks

We dropped our swollen hearts
Today,
Into the box
With the toys that we used to play.
We glanced over our shoulders
Today,
And tried to count
Every second
That led us here,
Looking back
With something in our eyes
Shining like regret.
We smashed all the clocks
Today,
And grasped at loose sand,
Replayed that song,
Traced our fingers over old scars.
We took our time
Today;
We sat in silence,
Today;
We returned to that golden frame
Of yesterday
Today.


Not my best. A little contrived at some points, but whatever.
