The Old Guitar

Seeing that old guitar
hanging on the wall,
a reminder of love 
to many it was known;
guitar was always 
in perfect tune
when it plays the song
of two hearts in bloom

Seeing that old guitar
hanging on the wall,
a memory of love 
that was bound to fall;
when guitar played
a different melody
and broken tears
blended in its harmony

Seeing that old guitar
hanging on the wall,
could it still play 
that familiar song;
guitar in solitude
many years has passed
still remain untouched
by then knowing hands
