She's There edited


She's There

Cold, crumbled leaves fall slowly.

Bare limbs bristle in the chill.

A hush clings to the air—

hollow voices calling,

echoing of emptiness.


Emotions have departed,

Leaving a beautifully desolate shell,

numb–  unwilling to care.

Hardened indifference

Begins to blossom 

in warmth

Of spring air
