Your Place In My Thoughts

This room of mine is barren, your memories were sold When the gavel was laid down your stories disappeared With word and deed complete, there's nothing to be told Will I ever see a treasure or ever hold the same Might my room be filled with more than devil’s flame I'm imprisoned with one thought, its me not you I feared 4 May 18

always loved the word "barren", love your rhythm especially. So much said in just one stanza loved every word. Thank you and congratulations on your placement :)-luloo

Brutally honest! Great writing. It is seldom good to run whether from self or others. Unless running is best for everyone involved. There are times when this is true.
