THE PASSAGE OF TIME



THE PASSAGE OF TIME

Songs not
Played
Sit on
Records.

Their words
Forgotten.
Melodies
Faded
Memories
In time.

Once
Bearers
Of delight,
They now
Sit
In discs
Quiet.. 

The walls
Are bare
When once
They held
Beauty
In frames.

In this
Place
The past
Reigns!

The floor
Is 
Cold.
No feet
Walk on
It
Like once 
They did...

Shoes
Are dressed 
In
The passage
Of time.

The place
Breathes 
A decay
Of 
Joy.

It must
Have
Been
A while
Of
Life
Well lived
Within
The walls!
