• The clocks of love
    We have in our hearts.
    Ticks away the time we have together.
    Never staying still,
    Always moving:
    Ticking forward with time well spent.
    Spinning back with absence.
    Saying good bye for the last time,
    Thinking of the next time I’ll see you,
    I take the battery off the clock.
    So my love for you will still remain.
    Thinking that you’ll do the same.
    Day by day, month by month
    Year by year,
    My love has stayed the same.
    It never faltered away.
    To see you again
    Was my greatest desire,
    And the chance came,
    And I took it,
    Only to find a different person here.
    As my clock stayed still,
    Yours spun back
    To the non-existent days.
    As my love increased
    As each day you were not beside me,
    Your’s dissipated away
    To forget me
    And the good times we shared.
    And this is my shock
    That you had forgot
    That once upon a time,
    You said to me
    That I was the one and the only one.
    That you loved only me.
