Memories

Empty rooms and lonely walls
Silence that fills empty halls
A single man roams from room to room
Trailing fingers fill with dust
A distant memory glows and washes away the rust on a creaky stool
Memories fill a now empty pool
Memories bring a smile to the mans gloomy face
A smile for a childhood taken for granted
