School Nights
April 30, 2014
Tick, tick, tick. Tick, tick, click, tick, tick
The beat is set.
Only the dark surrounds,
Zzz, zzz, zzooommm, vrooooommmm
Outside is full of life.
Dshwsh, dshwsh,
Heart beats in the silence.
One…shot…everything…rides…on…to...night.
Deepened pool of darkness.
Beep! Beep! Beep! Click!
Only the light surrounds,
And the endless cycle begins once more.
