Candle flickers
Dreams sprinkle
Eyes twinkle
Red sunrise paints
Society's constraints
Ocean crashes
Soul's ashes
Bodies push, pull, and glide
Cowboy boots slide
Spirits collide
Big band plays
Lost in your gaze
Time moves and swings
Expectation threaded on tapestry's strings
Turn of the century sepia shades
Names fade
Memories abyss
Time's precipice
Shadows haunt
Abandoned storefronts
Unrequited love's tears
Twilight's silent jeers
