the empty house



The empty house
The soul has disappeared
Leaving only the footprints
And the echoes of a time

The curtains hanging low
As if its life gone too
Faded by the sun rays
Leaving its memories

The space empty now
Gathering dust of times
The cobwebs mark its own
The water marks on its walls

The gate still holds
The rain and sun do the work
Faded but still serviceable
The echo of the wind blowing

The voices and laughter
The whisper in the house
Empty of occupants
They had gone

The empty house
It stands as it is
Waiting for another
To ring up the sound
