ghosts in the room

89 23 10
                                    

standing alone in an empty hallway

walls all greyed and hollow

shadows dancing on concrete skin

i hear the happiness of memories long gone

i feel the footsteps that echoed down every pebble in the path

echo in my thoughts, echo, echo on

i see the smiles that once used to be

and i feel the weight of the emotions that lie here, buried in dreams and written in tears

i remember them

they rid me my sorrows and relieve me my fears
