Pause and Play

If falling in love has a remote control,

I’d play our story over and all,

Go back to the moments when we just started,

And skip every time we think of ways on how to get parted,

I’d slow it down for the times we’re happy,

Pause and Play when things go choppy,

Go fast forward at times we argue,

Zoom in and out, the times when we’re so blue,

We’ll select those cute and memorable scenes,

Go to features and see what love really means,

Activate subtitle to remember the words we uttered,

Press volume to have our voices loudly heard,

But if love really has a remote control,

I’d add one button so that in love we’d always fall,

Remove some buttons like power off and stop,

Add patience for us to never give up,

Then I’ll add just one more feature,

A special button that’s tagged forever,

For us to stay in love with each other,

Never tiring and grow old together.

  1. Nice poem! The analogy about the remote control is so simple yet interesting. I never thought of doing that.

    A few things, it’d be cool if you complete your about page, your social links don’t bring me to your direct pages, and I was wondering if I can reblog this post.

      1. You’re welcome. And I’ve been there. Had to go Geek Squad a couple times for my laptop. It sucks and its expensive. I will reblog it now. 😀

    Hello to my tech savvy fallen angels! I love promoting the literary bounty that other bloggers garner. This new blogger, The Book Sniffer, wrote this unadorned yet enticing little poem. I enjoyed the metaphor pertaining to a remote control. It’s cute and interesting. I’m surprised I haven’t thought of it myself. Lol. Well, I hope you enjoy it and I encourage you to read others posts from them too. Have a wonderful day! Over and out.
