Not A Home.

Folder: 
closet boxes 2001

The house is bleak,

the walls are bare,

just lonely,empty halls

no one lives there.

Once was a home

not anymore,

the circumstances were unfair...

in time fell into disrepair.

Footsteps echo,

memories faded but not forgotten.

Ghosts of the past,

roam remembering,

the times of joy,anger,sorrow.

They will always be there.

There is no love within these walls,

only a shadow of what once was,

A Home.

This poem was written just before I moved from the house I lived in from age 6 to 15.
