THE KEY

a warning shot

triggers the clock

heads tick to every second

enters the flip of a magnet

a distinction to please

entropy finds a seat

takes the rein

broken strings gathered neat

provokes an impulse

the overture tumbles

pushes a soft warm breeze

leans in with an ease

steals the air I breathe

holds the key

Good write, rhymes well ;-]

Loved reading this. It's different. 'A good different.' I love the last two lines. Read it a couple of times. Great job!

Entropy is actually my boyfriend. I wrote this one day when he got on the rail after me, watching him walk past rows of people and sit next to me. It is like everything I knew about love up to that moment was a lie. Thank you for reading and leaving a review.

The apprehension of something going to happen. From changing seasons. To something unknown is going to happen once the door is unlocked. Like a great movie. Filled with drama, intrigue and wonder...

Wow, thank you. Glad you like it. Just my interpretation.

gripping beginning - warning shot - time is of the essence. sounds like a seasonal change or hunting metaphor. something sure is coming and things are about to change. great word that entropy - disorder or randomness in the system. i'd be keeping an eye to the sky. whatever this key controls, it's surely one heck of an important key ... :)

Pete, a man steps on the rail. He is different stands out from the crowd. I cant take my eyes off him and I don't want to stare. He takes the seat next to me and touches my hand. Kisses my cheek it is my love getting on the stop before home. This poetry is about that emotion he is contrast, chaos he holds the key. I appreciate your review thank you

I think it's beautiful! I enjoyed reading this! Thanks for sharing!

Zaisham9393, I thank you for seeing the beauty in this poetry. This is how I feel when I see the love of my life. People want the normal roses are red .... when I see him step into view he is contrast, chaos, everything he is the key.
