The Sadness Shadow

I'm an old picture,
Hung upon the wall of memory, 
I'm the misery of torsos dry, 
the sadness shadow 
Who sat in the darkness 
in the paralytic night! 

I'm an empty smile, 
melted in the empty heart. 
I'm a stranger sadness   
Who lived in weird house! 

I'm the frets frozen in the ice
And I'm the abandoned old well
in abandoned houses!
 
I'm the silence…
Who listened to its moan,
Like an entombed pain
Deep, deep inside.

And I'm the shadow's dream 
into the picture space!
