Time Shatters In The Cold

Moments dwindle on a thought,
Perceived by subtle notions,
That life cannot be lived throughout
A world of our clockwork motions.

Locked behind a lucid wall,
Slaving hands control our fate,
Voiceless as they tend to be
They seem to lack a simple trait.

When time is frozen, there they stay,
Along with minds that live apart,
For steel arms cannot stop
Those who live to serve their heart.
