Tick Tock
August 6, 2018
It feels
like I am fading
in front of my own eyes
hourglass girl/ I am melting by my
feet/ tick tock/ it is only a matter of time
before I am gone completely/ tick
tock/ I am scared to check
my weight on the
scale
tick tock
I don’t mean to indulge
in self destruction/ it is an ungrateful
act for the life I have been given/ but I love the
control more than the gratitude/ I
love the control more than
the gratitude.
