Empty House


In there I kept my life, behind those walls

Where you looked in windows, peered round doors

But no more are you welcome, no more, no more.

Once you turned away there was no room to turn back

the path was too narrow and the brambles too thick

so you went on your way, walk away, walk away.

The drafts whistle through the halls and stairs

the air is chill and the rooms are bare

All closed up and quiet now, hush, hush, still.
