As Simple As Clockwork

Cogs in time, we turn as one, gears of gold beneath the sun. Your breath keeps my pistons true, a winding key shaped just for you. You call it fate, I call it art, the sound of a sympathetic heart. Love is simple as clockwork, dear, tick by tick I draw you near. One twist, one turn, you fall in line, I keep the tempo... you keep time. You smile in rhythm, sweet and blind, a masterpiece of gears aligned. Your eyes reflect a metal gleam, you hum the tune of my machine. You think this pulse is shared in kind, but I composed the notes inside. Love is simple as clockwork, dear, tick by tick I draw you near. Every gear obeys my sign, I keep the tempo... you keep time. Velvet gloves conceal the key, spinning hearts in circuitry. You lean in close... how sweet, how sure.... but darling, I designed the lure. Your heartbeat’s wound around my wrist, a ticking song I can’t resist. Love is simple as clockwork, dear, tick by tick I draw you near. Every tick another chain, pleasure’s just a sweet constraint. Listen… hear that click? That’s surrender locking in. Every second’s a promise, and I’m winding you tighter. You think you chase the spark but I am the engine in the dark. Now your breath aligns with mine, steam and pulse in perfect time. You call it love... I call it law, the kind that leaves you struck in awe. Every turn, your trust, your fear... I built the gears that brought you here. Love is simple as clockwork, dear, tick by tick I draw you near. Every motion, every sigh, moves the hands of you and I. The lights dim down, the room obeys, each dreamer sways the way I say. My kingdom hums in brass and wire, a symphony of soft desire. Love is simple as clockwork, dear, tick by tick it’s crystal clear. You think you move of your design I keep the tempo, you keep time. Hush… the gears still spin. And so do you.
