The Key To My Heart Is Always Yours
Wonderland Challenge Day 5
An old man sits in solitude,
Gazing out at a blue sea,
His eyes closed shut, his mood subdued,
His hand moves to his knee,
Resting there lies a tiny key.
🗝️🗝️🗝️🗝️
A symbol of a love now gone,
A gift to his beloved wife,
The edges of it are slightly worn,
Still, she is there, part of his life,
As he strokes the tiny key.
🗝️🗝️🗝️🗝️
I loved you then, I love you now,
You are always in my heart,
You’re close to me somehow,
And with this key, we’ll never be apart,
As he strokes the tiny key.
🗝️🗝️🗝️🗝️
Tears flow from his tied eyes,
Lamenting times gone by,
He lifts his head towards the skies,
And let’s out a soulful sigh,
You still have the key to my heart.
🗝️🗝️🗝️🗝️
Till next time,
Calvin
