A place once filled with warmth, laughter and happy smiles
Now an empty, cold land lost between the miles.
The room which once had toys on bed,
Is now completely empty and dead.
Barely a few years,yet a huge change
Lively to dead, it's so strange.
Those family frames on the walls,
Are now replaced by spirits trudging in the halls.
Years ago,it was brightly lit like the sun
Now a dark space so creepy, making people want to run
Caresses and pats; kisses and hugs
Cobwebs and dust,rats and bugs.
The morning chatters and evening bickering;
Scary movements and eerie feelings lingering.
Oh how fast the days went by
I can never slow down time,no matter how hard I try
How do I stop these eyes from brimming with tears?
It's sad how the days turned through the years.
The backyard in which we danced in the rain
Is now completely empty, filling my heart with pain.
Why does time always pass so quickly? As if it's racing
Making me so helpless to the point where the past I'm chasing.
It feels like I'm stranded on a deserted island
And the pain is infinite like the grains of sand.
With no end in sight to this misery of mine
I've embraced it and learned to live with it just fine.
Long gone is the child who'd throw tantrums and cry
For life pushed me into becoming an adult, knowing my tears no one would dry.
