Bare Walls (Moving Day) by Martie Hevia

Bare Walls… Bare Walls
Wounded by so many holes, these
Bare Walls
Where picture frames and memories
hung and faded
on these Bare Walls… Bare Walls
~
Entrap an empty room
which overflows
With silent echoes and lonely ghosts
Broken hearts only heaven knows
Though nothing dies, nothing ever grows
on these Bare Walls… Bare Walls
~
Bare Walls… Bare Walls
Once they said hello,
now I say good-bye to these
Bare Walls
Pack up the memories and dry the tears
Say farewell to all the years
wrapped in these Bare Walls… Bare Walls
~
Stand witness to an ancient child
who longed to be
If not wild, then always free and kind
A rebel thinker with an open mind
Imagination to always find
life on these Bare Walls… Bare Walls
~
[Pick]
Memories, like ivy,
will always cover these
Bare Walls.
