the house is empty except
a few boxes scattered about
only a couple of pieces
of unwanted furniture
are left behind
half of a lifetime
was taken away
all that is left
is the discarded pieces
of the life i wanted
and the lonely echoes
of our last goodbyes
Written for Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (FOWC) – lonely
