Faces with numbers
And mine is drawn to you only.
My heart is tied to a stone
The stone dropping and dropping and dropping,
The rock bottom inching closer.
I look away,
Pins pricks all over.

Your letters reasoned,
But the tongs didn't resonate.
The war wages,
The enemy and ally coincide.

Who am I?
Who are you?

The sand slips through,
But the allegiance of the fingers
Unknown.

Crawl up a notch,
But not me,
My knees are blistered.

Crawl up a notch,
But not you,
Think the medicines expired.

The clock's upturned,
A race against the inevitable,
As the riddle remains unsolved.

Faces with numbers,
Mine is drawn to yours,
Seeking, waiting, waiting, seeking.

Faces with numbers,
Is yours drawn to mine anymore?
Will the numbers connect?
Will we crack the combination?
