i walk through hallowed hallways,
that were once my heart.
once filled with lifegiving blood,
that coursed through strong veins.
now they are all empty,
and covered with dust.
what was once a burning ember,
now just cold blackened ashes.
the wind blows cold and strong,
in the spaces that are now unfilled.
there are no remnants of the tears,
that were once abundant.
torn and tattered love letters,
litter the floor that once flowed life.
sounds echoe from the chambers,
where the steady beat was recanted.
footprints scattered in the dust,
where you also once walked through my heart.

me.

Don't worry Mo I shall get rid of the second one  
This was sad my friend, hopefully the writing is exorcising the demons.  (HUGS) my friend.

Aah, you have taken me through the tour of a heart that appears to have alot in common with mine. I will never understand why the hearts so full of passion and emotion end up being the lonely ones. A sad and lovely piece, mo.

Mo... the very last line brought
memories of someone I loved. to flood my heart.

 Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.
