Whithered Rose [just writing]
Withered rose
old love letters,
held among dust and ribbons.
Winds blow through pane-less
windows, cold stills the day.
Years were held,
empty hands,
hearts forever wait.
She dreamed alone....
dreams had not changed the day.
Prayed alone...
and know its hard to be alone.
Feel a winter heart,
gathering of leaves rush
from abandon corners
disturb nothing, what years have claimed.
Silent I return the rose,
gently close the door,
and believe she dances still
this once lit cabin .......Vincent

Lane,
Nice verse here, conjuring ghosts of someone lost . . . for me at least. Part of me was looking for "and believe she dances STILL this one lit cabin" in that last line--but that's just a subjective nit. The words definitely convey a deep sense of heart and soul. Enjoyed reading this one.
Kind regards,
Deej

So rich in the picture you paint bringing us into the room, making us feel and see the items and dust and then emoting such longing and melancholy, lovely write!
