Ghosts Of A Life Past

Elusive painted walls,

Spider web thin figures,

Early morning sun rising to illustrate an empty room

 

The only free given thought,

And empty liberation,

Comes from the open-minded thoughts of one who is not there anymore

 

Photographs lay strewn about,

An attempt to disguise,

The truth behind a world that no one remembers anymore

 

Old blood red stains on the floor,

A shattered window,

Only illustrate the darker side of a past once sacred

 

The moldy ceiling,

And the light that still flows into the room,

Only give the slightest remaining details of ghosts of a life past

Ohh, stark and wise! This is threaded beautifully! A pleasure to read and decipher! xoxo

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

a mean outlook towards the very experience of dialouge, the scene paints images that shock and sooth at the same time, well done, great read.

[EMMIE]

VERY CREATIVE AND THOUGH PROVOKING. THIS POEM IS INTERESTING BECAUSE IT REALLY MAKES YOU WONDER ABOUT THE PAST THE GOOD AND THE BAD EXPERIENCES WE LEFT BEHIND. YOU PAINT A VERY VIVID PICTURE. GREAT WRITE.

Very powerful and graphic as well,
Most of all it was amazing to read.

[Poeticpiers]

Intereresting train of thought expressed in poetic prose. Certainly makes one wonder what traces we do leave behind
