Clock Worn Tattoo _ with "Adagio"

turning the key and locking the door  
saying farewell to death's shadow  
as memories of my eyes fade to dark  
drowning the pain of insanity's rain  
leaving blood-red clock-worn tattoo  
a faint mark that never fades away  
stinging with every breath i take  
and when i cease soon enough  
the smudge will be absorbed becoming  
ink-sculpted skeleton
