Abandoned Church

In the midst of this silent song,
Is a lost note-a lost church...
Worst than being abandoned,
It's foundation  has been crawled by isolation...
The melodious rhymes it made,
Has been replaced by a never ending moaning of the ocean...
The sands crapes into it veins,
Going sway..
It was a place filled with saved souls..
A place of inspiration,
Tunes into a place of isolation..
Left and abandoned by all,
The place of worship has turned into "abbadon".

A mesmerizing write, Prince. I love the way you described the decay of the church, even though it was a "place filled with saved souls." Now I'll have to look up "abbadon." Intriguing! Best wishes in the contest and thanks for stopping by. Love, Carolyn
