Love Poem: Wearing Off

Wearing Off

As they kissed, she pulled back,
reminding him that staying together
as a couple had turned her to something
that could easily wear off.
Their house's blissful aura was fading;
time had ceased in their wall clock;
they didn't share socks in winter nights,
anymore.....
He had no words to express,
as words disintegrated bitterly into
his vocal cords.
