Empty Rooms Poem by T.James Becker
Empty Rooms
In this old house with faded blue walls
Dirty storm windows and carpeted halls
Silence screams loudly in every room
Among the ashes of love once in bloom
Sorrow seduced me late in the fall
Love packed in boxes destroying it all
A mistress called loneliness comes every night
Holding me coldly till morning light
Like a ghost, I haunt empty rooms
Filling my lungs with her sweet perfume
If I listen carefully, I can still hear
Her soft voice whispering so clear in my ear
I feel her presence for such a short while
Nevertheless, I am unable to smile
Her memories are fading yet I hold on tight
Cursing cruel death that took her that night
you quite literally leave me speechless...that within itself is a miracle...amazing piece of work.
amazing....beautiful......leaving me speechless.....a ver good poem....i luvd it...
this is great stuff I'd comment on them all but I think one will do really like your style, I've always had trouble bringing in structure to my work but you do it so nicely and it fits well I've read a lot of different writings and a lot of people stress the rhythem and the rhyme schemes that the poem loses its heart. Your stuff has a heart and all the other organs. Great stuff man, really like the elemental aspects too
hem... very touching. if i can, i'll write a parody. konstantin
This is a really fantastic piece, well penned and crafted, well done 10/10 Regards Tom
