A desolate house
empty, devoid
once filled with life
its wood always warm

a desolate house
deep in the dark woods
taken over by leaves
untouched by a foot

a realtors nightmare

a young man full of pride
who's heart is too big
washed up in the tide

a nice diamond ring
a love never there
a dying dead flame
a head full of hair

bound to another
a small tiny crack
a  staircase now fallen
the very same wood
now singed black

it hungers. it breathes.
in each wall, they seethe.
the victims inside, the ones he cant see
they beckon they call
they seethe and they seethe.
this poem is about my original character Eliott Blanchette.
