Fatality Of A House Date: Thursday, 11th July 2002 @ 06:38:42 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: chuck I crept through the house, passing from room to room. It’s not even fit for a mouse, this recently lived in tomb. A house lost from uncaring, was once someone’s dream. A musty reek to my sickening, whispers a cry for self-esteem. A treasured home of pride, malformed and desecrated. Sullied throughout the inside, scarred from a human horrid. Light oozed in from a window, stirring shadows of cracked slate. I can sense a chilling sorrow, as decay hastens its optional fate. Power once electrified its spirit, now disconnected to lay dormant. Such a lonely heartrending sonnet, restored only by an enchantment. Chuck Keyes © July 7, 2002 This poem is Copyright © chuck Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
