Scene 341: Restless

I sit at my window and watch the lights glide by
And every time those wheels roll,
I feel my heart beat.
So slowly
against the syncopation of the city.

Lights blink and roar through the night
breathing with the pace of the clouds.
With each tear that a cloud didn't cry,
my heart stamps its foot down
and my body aches.

The tick of the clock is so callous.
Oh, for a second,
just give me another one,
so that I may catch up.
My heart's feet grow tired from stamping
