need a watch, i don't

it became a love song for no one
or someone in particular
i wore a watch
a time piece tracking another second
closer to where i had to be
asleep by this time
awake by this
it was taken from me
she (the love interest) took it
told me i could have it back
when i learned how to tell time
when to be where when
asleep by when
awake by when
everyone had a watch
clocks on every wall watching me
and i forgot i once owned one
i saw here was now
asleep in her arms was the
time to fall asleep
awake when i held her and
smiled to greet that time
it was about how the day might
start while i live in it
and end whenever it felt the need to
what else did she do
she stole my heart and soul
and told me i could have it
back when i learned how
to love
