The Skull

It's ever watching look abodes

In the eyes it does not own

It's smile is never failing though

It is as silent as a stone

What once held, a treasure great

Now holds an empty space

Gone is it's beauty, and it’s charm

And too elegance, and grace

Feelings felt when eyes are laid

Upon it's sight are known

But from fear or great sadness

Seeds of curiosity are sown

So still and silent, thereon it stands

With eyes so dark and dull

A reminder of what it used to be—

The mysterious human skull
