Lamenated ( HM )

Polished once a gleam

a smile

held upon torched light

flickering until the batteries fade.

 

Lone a heart

deep sobs echo blank plastered walls

undressed

bare its covering.

 

Shadows loom ghostly intent

hauntingly beautiful

a figurine

once lay naked in arms.

 

Framed perfection dances in mind

hollow images

negative hopes once full a dream

cast cold .

 

Lamented floorboards creaked

sprung passion

desiring times of

once was you and me.
