NO-ONE VISITS NOW
My hollow eyes still bleed
For those who will not come
Kneel and wonder now
Upon another’s door,
Behind my cold facade
An aching heart still loves
Arrhythmic sleepless pulse
Beats to an ancient tune.
Within my hallowed shell
Your memories I hold
Like children to the breast
And secrets never told
To me your eyes are blind
My tears are mine alone
And still I wait in vain
For those who will not come.

Great, if more than a little creepy!
And sad too. Thanks Sue.
Well, of course, that as well
Thanks, Chris, a different pic – which is great – and I think they work well together. Could be on to something here!
Excellent creative pairing, you guys. I’m really pleased about having read this. 😀
Isn’t CN great? I love that the lonely image now has a friend.
It’s perfection! 🙂
Those last four lines killer
That is Chris Nelson’s talent for you. I should have put a link in for him.
