KILLING SKELETONS

Written by Daydreamdaisies and Hastywords

I walk the halls of endless nights
Looking for the perfect escape
Conversations shouting at me
Scattered behind each door

And the words, pawing sniffing
Scampering words of past come
Knocking down my soul, they ask
Why would we let you pass?

A cacophony of accusations
Scratching clawing behind the walls
Skeletons tired of picking bones
Clamoring to see the light of day

Hungry they wait till I break
Their ribcages and transform them
Into boats of fond remembrance
Watch them float into future

The hallways vacant and silent now
All the ghostly prisoners set free
I open all the windows
Allowing new visions to take shape

Till my soul is filled with nakedness
And the happiness hot on my eyelids
Forges me a new sight
Till all is bathed bare and fresh
