Challenge
Lyrically yours
You need to be listening to music to do this challenge. I mean, I guess if you have music running through your head, maybe that counts? But my idea was to take a line from the song to which you are listening, and write using it as inspiration, then add another line if it catches your attention, until you feel you are done writing, or until the music ends (I hope the music never ends, but your piece will have to I suppose). Credit the song(s) and artist(s) in your comments and tag me so I don't miss it.
Just a Matter of Time

Some love is just a lie of the heart
Guess that’s true but damn it’s so hard to just play it smart
And you may not want to admit
It’s not us it’s just a question of fit
Some love is just a lie of the mind
Wish I could turn it off or learn to be kind and rewind
But time it keeps marching on
And you’ll look but one day we’ll both be gone
Some love is just a lie of the soul
The human heart is not a switch you can try to control
Though it may not beat for awhile
One day you’ll think back on these times with a smile
