Light to Life

A light spreads like butter on bread

Unlike other lights, this one seems to stick to the surface

It wants not to leave as you turn it out, it wants to stay

Like a cousin who came for dinner but won’t be turned out,

Life is like that, where as it sticks to you in ways, and never wants to change.

But, sometimes you have to turn out the lights, and go away,

For sometime, somewhere you will be needed, and you can’t stay,

And life eventually will have to accept your sway.

Please tell me what you think

    Now this I really enjoyed reading.
    This is phenomenal writing. I loved the
    uniqueness of it-the rhyme scheme structure
    was appealing as well and added to the poem's
    natural flow and structure.

    Thanks for sharing with us all
    Keep penning!

    Good concept

    I like poems with a strong idea, a theme that permeates through the lines. This has that. Some interesting metaphor
