Love’s Poetry

Nuances.

The rhythm slows,

Lights flicker,

A room once bright,

Is now dimly lit.

Hearts ache,

Bittersweet,

The pieces laid out, 

Never seem to fit.

The clock races,

Time stands still,

A story ends,

But will never quit.

    “You can check out any time you like
    But you can never leave” —
    nicely done. I enjoyed it.
