The Key

7
Written by the50yearoldpoet

The ink from my pen

has run dry

unlike the tears over you

that I cry.

I’ve used up all the words

I could write

now the time has come to

say goodnight.

For tomorrow I must consign

you to the past

even though I know these

feelings want to last.

The only way for me to move on

is to set you free,

to close that door in my mind

and turn the key.
