I wrote this over 2 years ago. Life does continue on. Don’t stay in that old room with old memories for too long. Lot’s of new memories to be made!
Coffins line eroded walls
Like blackened bloody bricks
And webs that spiders spun
Have long ago lost their stick
She is aware she is breathing
She is scared he is leaving
Questions asked, no response
As snowflakes intend to bury
Feelings once warm, ignored
Until covered in their icy flurry
She is aware she is breathing
She is scared he is leaving
Screams full of heartbreak
Are long forgotten songs
Echoing ghostly whispers
A memorial to their wrongs
She is aware she is breathing
She is scared he is leaving
Running so long without hope
Toward an old and broken light
He took the sun away from her
And took the moon out of spite
She is aware she is breathing
She is scared he is leaving
She boards up the windows
And prepares to leave
The old abandoned room
Where for so long she did grieve
Why am I still breathing
I know he’s not returning

This feels a bit like it was influenced by the movie, ‘The Piano’.
