Footsteps echo around the room Charred remnants are the devil’s perfume Broken windows with shards of glass Hang defiant in the blackened sash Memories gone won’t return soon. Rusty coils amid the blackness What were few possessions are less Burnt out ceiling lets in night air For an unforgiving moon to stare Peeking in the realm of the hopeless. Footsteps die in leaving the room Silence beyond any life or gloom Nothing left and none demanding Fragile ash that’s barely standing To become another urban tomb. Gloom |

Footsteps echo around the room ~*~ Sound ~*~ Charred remnants are the devil’s perfume ~*~ Smell ~*~ Broken windows with shards of glass ~*~ Touch ~*~ Hang defiant in the blackened sash Memories gone won’t return soon. Rusty coils amid the blackness What were few possessions are less Burnt out ceiling lets in night air For an unforgiving moon to stare Peeking in the realm of the hopeless. Footsteps die in leaving the room Silence beyond any life or gloom Nothing left and none demanding Fragile ash that’s barely standing To become another urban tomb. ~*~ Emotion. |

I always feel in your writing I am standing around a corner somewhere by where you live, and doing character studies somehow. This was another one of those times, that you paint me a picture so very well. |
