37 seconds

Tapping the time
He casually walked the line
In the space between dreams
Rent and torn
Tears telling a tale
Yearning

So long and farewell
Effervescent encounters of the mysterious kind
Very strong
Every song
Nothing but a whispering in his ear

Sell him some semblance of hope
Every leaf that falls fears the fire
Churlish ire that bold desire
Over cooked on the pyre
Nothing scares him more
Down there in the glittering dark
Swimming amongst silken simmerings of spidery lore

      I hope you find this amusing...

      I was going to enter a prewrite, but saw that you had quite a few of those so I entered a fresh one, all the while not thinking to make it one of the options as I had changed my mind so suddenly. If you want me to remove it I can.

    just a note.... try thinking of a different word other than tapping...cause it shows up in your poetry a ton.

    Other than that, this poem spins about in a very mysterious and enchanting fashion.

    always a pleasure.

      Didn't have much of a choice on this one. Due to the chosen structure the first letter of the first line had to be a "T."

      And you're right, the word is in a lot of my work.
