The Sweet Decadence Of Time

Written away in the pages
You’ll be just another mystery
You may have been the greatest
But you won’t go down in history

You may not be alive
But you’re sure as hell not dead
You may not be a ghost
But you linger in my head

The shadows re-create you
With every direction of the sun
You’re running to stand still
You’re like a cowboy with a gun

You’re the essence of eternal life
Without you we can’t exist
You’re the guardian of the keepers
And we just can’t resist

As the clock strikes twelve
And the mouse runs down
The emperor of time
Just reclaimed her crown

I loved it alot. The way you can ryhm makes me feel jelous, I can never ryhm. I love the last stanza especially, the way you tied in part of a nursery ryhm into your own poem. Great job. Library.

A simple run of chords
Quiet here in this spare room
But only you can hear it, hear it..."

I really like it. Something new doesn't always mean bad.
