The clock ticks
in the middle of the night.
She lies awake
till the morning light.

Deep in thought,
she thinks back so far.
Once so young
she could touch the stars.

Where is she now,
she needs to know.
She sits silently,
but the road wont show.

Where is she now,
what is she to know?
The mystery of life
has not been shown.

She wants so much
to find her dreams.
The clock ticks on and on
it only seems.

All she really knows,
is how time continues to fleet.
So silently, and wonderingly,
in bated breath she seeks!
