Not sure if this would have met the requirements for the contest but I did like the theme.

An Incomplete Love Story

Too fast the pages riffled
through dreary decades
innocence confronted
loves lusty laughter
growing faint
in darkened corridors.

Forever’s love
hesitant in a hazy
distant stare,
longing
for a return
of its longing,
passion adrift
on a fleeing vision.

An incomplete love story
written in blank pages
riffling too slowly
too sadly,
too soon,
to end.
