the personification of history
August 3, 2015
she whispers soft tales
of past worlds—
running hands,
breathing words,
closing eyes.
there are some crescendos even time cannot erase.
within these stone walls and ash-burnt trees
pain and love never die.
slow thoughts and soft fingertips—
you can taste
the fear,
the happiness,
the tears,
the hope.
let these ancient objects break into amaranthine stories
in this hollowness to home.
