Where They Will Find Me

contest Where They Will Find Me I left all worldly possessions behind me besides a few precious journals with a few blank pages my medications and two pens thrown in my purse I took a bus right on out of here where the grass was tall found an abandoned victorian style house and stayed It took the whole day to wander through the nooks and crannies stairs and cobwebs. A full library of old, beautiful and dusty books I grabbed an old book and a handful of pills the stained glass window shining on me and the blue brocade couch made a kaleidoscope of my waxy, white face and fingers clutching the leatherbound book with it's gold trim pages as if I'd never let go.
