Dimly Lighted Room


Dimly lighted room

Frustration on the keys

Pondering which words of rhythm I should seize

 

Silence pervades me

Naught on the mind     

Within this space I am confined

 

Suddenly a thought

Blissful as the wind

Across my face I grinned

 

With mad speed

Ideas on the screen

Taking one final sip of caffeine  

 

Lines finally arranged

Meaning obvious to assume

Taking place in a dimly lighted room
