I am empty as an abandoned house Boarded up and left to its own decay Rotting from the inside out No life or love to be found Silence echoes its sad refrain Through every empty room For there is no one No caressing hands of love and care To bring life and colour To make this house their home Light no longer pierces my windows For they were boarded shut long ago I have fallen into a state of disrepair Without someone who loves and cares I sit alone With tears like rain Leaking through my frame With grass and hedges overgrown I am a target for rocks that are thrown No one to call me their own Broken and vandalized Not long ago I was loved Now I am despised Waiting in the rain and cold For there is no one The truth of the matter Is that I am falling apart A testament of what neglect will do When no one sees the value in you My halls are haunted with ghosts Their voices and laughter can still be heard I sit alone Inside are only creaks and moans No one enters, no one stops There is no one to call As shingles are blown away and fall I am a house abandoned after all....
