Locked
I wander through the skeleton
of what used to be your life
days when you were happy
the rooms now empty
your past leaves a hole
that you are trying to fill
the things that you cast off
the things you no longer need
splatters on once white walls
weeds have grown
where flowers once grew
remnants of yesterday
pristine silence
echoes in the dark
locked now, like this door
