The Empty Room Poem by Viola Grey
The Empty Room
I see the light fade
in your sea greens
as you ponder
unknown troubles
hidden behind
a sullen smile.
Where do you wander
alone in your mind,
turning away
from a heated touch,
cooling your heels
upon a lonely path.
Come back, sweet lover,
empty is this air
without breathing
life into you.
I miss you more
than we ever were,
return to this room...
I miss you.

A nice play of words in this lovely work...i'm torn between celebrating the genius of this piece and grieving sad atmosphere it radiates
