Here in this house,
the sickly sunshine barley filters through the musty windows,
and the light that makes it is quickly ushered away.
And in here the air is different somehow,
a cloying sweetness that encroaches on you and seeps through your skin.
Like the rays of a dying star,
this place is fading fast,
all the glory days are spent,
so now it is just a countdown,
till all this crumbles, decays and is forgotten.
And as I walk through these doors,
the spiritless chill hits me first,
then the memories that once happiness and laughter existed here,
they make me realise how tainted this place seems to me now,
So I'm here in this house, no longer can I say I'm here in my home

Heh, I like this poem and I can quite certainly identify with it on a metaphorical sense! I liked your imagery in this poem too. It's definitely going into my library.

"If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh"

Beautiful work, anya.
Sometimes, even your room
isn't enough
to find peace.
