The Timekeeper
An abode he never leaves
A journey never complete.
As the wave crashes onto the lighthouse,
The light stammers and sulks
The fear of it, makes it fadeHis regrets cannot be repaid
Songs of birds, uncharted sea,
adoration and interests kept at bay.
The timekeeper rests to succumb.
Picture of gray, the colours jailed,
Trapped for eternity.
An empty canvas displayed.
