Somber suffering soul
sobbing in the seclusion
of a house suffused with spirits
Taunting shades of a wayward life
whose stark sadness sustains
sinister shadows of mocking solitude
Emptiness’ everlasting echoes
announcing fate's cruel joke
perpetrated on a fool's heart
ripped wantonly asunder
amid a perversely callous
tragedy of farewell
Suspended in time
unwilling or unable
to venture further on a
cold forsaken path
Burdened by longing
for the past
Beyond hope
for the future
