Hello every one

I'm new to this. I hope i'll also be able to share some of my original art on this site as well. here is a poem i've been working on hope you like. remember its a work in progress

The Breaking Point

Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
The clock sits high on the wall just before me
It mocks me with its constant clatter
Its determination to be heard in every silence
Comfortable or otherwise
It goes on existing even with my disapproval
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
It makes me remember others that anger me
The man who made the clock before he left me
His wife who has made me no more than a servant
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick, tock
This is my lovers fault for leaving me with this witch
This wolf in sheep’s clothing
This is all torture centred around a clock
Watching the pendulum swing
As if it wishes to anger me also
Tick, tock, tick, tock, tick…
It falls from the wall
Smashing into many pieces
They litter the floor at my feet
I close my eyes try to sleep
But without the ticking of that mocking clock
I find the silence much to loud
