Elusive
Framed out pridefully perfect above the crisp glow of embers, is Family.
To each side sets sarcastically cocked crooked, Love and Hope.
Reality streams blindly through the window
While drapes try bravely to filter the unwanted.
Slightly above the door, where the dust has long been gathering,
Hangs curiously a sign stating, “Trespassers will be shot on sight”
Engulfing the significant part of the room is a hypnotic piece of art.
It has “Your Life” meticulously designed within it's brilliance.
This place has been kept cryptically locked away for ages,
Safely out of the reach of any who try's gaining entry.
