A Love Song

...

Years past, you asked me to write a love song
foolishly never got around to it
one of multitude verses I've sung wrong
listen: music surrounds, now that we've split

perhaps I lacked proper motivation
maybe we've been stuck in a rut, boredom
induced misery, poor explanation
I know, how else do we interpret our problems

no matter, you cannot attend, the part
played, the dance ended, symphony silent
the past's frozen museum framed the art
time sweeps, ever the janitor tyrant

though I know performance over, I fear
you will not chance this love poem to hear

...

  1. You definitely have a voice! Well written, interesting line breaks and great word choices. (It's odd both of our poems today mention a janitor!)
