Poem

Darkness covers the sky high up
Listening to the beat of the house
I project my heart to feel the sound
A whole music entity is harbored therein
As light is brought into the house
It fills the night with bewilderment
And I have fear of this unearthly show
This path I’m one divides into two
And the each surround the building
The only thing I could see in this night
Is the eerie light from within this house
I approach here, trying to see inside
A mansion in its own right
I finally make it to the main window
Inside are many candles flickering
I see a lone man sitting on a settee
He had a book in one hand
And a pen frantically writing in the other
The walls shimmer from the flame
And the artwork is of the classic variety
Even though it has an odd feel to the room
This room is calming and tranquil
The feel is so much greater here
Than the outside of the house
The tender looking man looks up
And his eyes look directly into mine
And I fear I’ve been caught
So I run, quickly run on down the path
Looking to find any place to hide
And not looking back to the old house
And only to hold this memory
For the future episodes of my life
I never went back, to this day I haven’t
I still remember the room
And all its calming flickering candles
And the man writing frantically
About what, nobody will ever know
I will never forget, I will never forget
