Distant Cries

Gathering thoughts

Tumbled on lifeless shoulders

Legs crossed

Arms folded

The outside is distant

The inside isolated and empty

Tree bow down

Scratching the dusty ground

Clouds form a curtain

Sun pushes its way through

Silence surrounds

Sculpted arches

Reinforced chains

Echo from the past

Passage ways

Of the forgotten

Scream out

In silent hallways

Heavy feet

Drowning out

The past, the lost, the forgotten
