The Heartbreak Hotel

The Heartbreak Hotel

(Poem by Serenus)

…Where you check-in

Whole-Hearted

But you don’t check-out

In the condition you started

 

It’s simply heaven

When you walk through the lobby doors

But hell becomes apparent

When reaching the highest floors

 

Where a bride and groom

Enters a beautifully decorated room

Flooded in misery

Dripping in gloom

 

They floated in on a cloud

But the rain came

And they separated

So not to drown

 

Empty King-Sized bed

With tear- stained pillows

Blind to the outside world

No light, no widows

 

Countless visitors come

But their story is the same

Hopelessly in love, then…

Earth shattering pain

 

You are guaranteed

Not to enjoy your stay

Because the love of your life

Will surely go away

 

Where a deliciously decadent

Love goes stale

Dreams go to die

And faith goes to fail

 

Remember.. No refunds

This is the final sale

No pets allowed...

Welcome to The Heartbreak Hotel

Loved the first and last line of this poem. I liked the whole "no pets allowed" thing. That actually made me chuckle a bit. Good work.
