And then we were done.

Aged Interlude

A lifetime of memories

Housed in

Three letters, one syllable.

Old.

A fleeting moment

Before

An eternity of silence.

Aged Interlude

A lifetime of memories 

Housed in

Three letters, one syllable.

A tattered soul in a wrinkled suit,

Wizened through years of experience,

Fermented like a fine 

Vintage on a dusty shelf.

Old.

A fleeting moment

Before 

An eternity of silence.
