Toki

Tok tok, door knock, world in my palm,

Words heavy like a bomb, calm before the storm,

Streetlight flicker, shadows dance on the block,

Tick-tock, life’s clock, can’t rewind or stop.

Toki, spinning stories in the winds of time,

Echoes in the alleys, hear the rhythm and rhyme,

Footsteps on the pavement, a beat so divine,

Toki whispers truth in the cracks of the grime.

Concrete jungle, where the wild minds roam,

Hustle on the daily, make the struggle your home,

Life’s a puzzle, pieces scattered, unknown,

But the toki keeps ticking, never leaves you alone.

Flick of the wrist, paint the world with a verse,

Every line’s a universe, a blessing and a curse,

Toki speaks in tongues, every moment diverse,

Heart beats syncopated, put the passion in reverse.

Time’s a thief, snatchin’ dreams in the night,

Fingers clutch the future, hold it steady, grip tight,

Toki flows eternal, like the stars in flight,

In the dark, it illuminates, a guiding light.

Toki, spinning stories in the winds of time,

Echoes in the alleys, hear the rhythm and rhyme,

Footsteps on the pavement, a beat so divine,

Toki whispers truth in the cracks of the grime.
