Deficiency Syndrome

I look into the mirror in a dissociation as my reflection no longer looked at me. My companion lost in abyss of darkness my dearest wife, I no longer find beside me. Engulfed in emptiness of a gasp of echo my abode of walls reverberates in silence. A house painted in creamy white and pink with beautiful carpets, curtains and closets. Our dreams spread beyond horizon of hope, as we breathed life and made it our home. Soft arms of an amazing angel, she turned our world to a sensual garden. A place where flowers learned to dance. A place where birds learned to whistle. A place where butterflies learned to flutter. The Mom of the house... she cooked and washed, cleaned and dried everything perfect where they should reside. Domestic rules in her strict constitution, The lioness was fierce, an epitome of dedication. Now she has left her den, never to return... her helpless house looks into the mirror it no longer finds that exhilarating home. Quietly we endure the deficiency syndrome. 11th July 2019 Sponsor Kai Michael Neumann Contest Name Another Eight Word Challenge The following words have to be used Constitution Hope Echo Dissociation Abode Dreams Lioness Sensual
