Skeleton Key

Contributor: Ben Rasnic

- -
There comes a time
without fail
when passions subside
and stagnate.

Self-preservation
as a rule
grows a protective layer
of skin across the heart
that callouses over time.

Yet a simple notion,
a well-placed sentiment
can re-open what was
& what should always be.

The opposite of love
is indifference.
