Empty Noose by Melina Raven Maness DieboldDarkness all around me
like a blanket
Stillness all around me
like a warm bath
Peace and pride remain forbidden,
banned eternally
The soothing rustle of bones,
the bones of beloved memories,
echoes throughout my shadowed corridor
Blood-encrusted epitaphs
adorn the cold, dark walls
Welcome to my sadness
Welcome to my life
