A row of tiny houses A row of open doors No one living anywhere Just bones upon the floor Bones that have lain there For many lonely years In a place where death lives And plays upon your fears An abandoned little chapel Another open door There’s no sense in praying For the bones upon […]
Tiny and delicate Shades of purple blue The petals of forget-me-not Draw my mind to you To my own special memories I remember in my own way Those are the only bits of you They can not take away All the little funny things All the little thoughts I hope you can remember too Please, […]
It was dark but cozy Threadbare but padded with love The floorboards squeaked And the windows leaked But it was beautiful At the foot of the windy stair It’s face shining like the moon Every hour on time It’s bells would chime As the hours ticked quietly away A tiny kitchen With a worn old […]
