Of a house engulfed in shadows Beads of sweat on my brow Nervous shakes induced by the unknown The moon casting ineffectual light Through one tiny window In the corner sits a box Illuminated from the light Through the one tiny window Eerily calling out to me Drawing me closer As if telling me I need it Shaking hands fumble the box open Fear consuming me Locking my eyes shut Anticipation of the worst Freezing my movement Forcing my eyes open With calming pep talk thoughts I hold my breath and look into the box With a sigh and a smile A rush of relief comes over me Just a pile of photos Picking up the first one Me as a child… But I can’t remember this event Or the next ones… Something sparks on the third Brining back a wave of memories Not so precious moments in time Forgotten by the conscious mind Logged and documented Filed away for a much stronger day Hidden deep within the shadows Waiting for that one moment of light [comments] => 1 [counter] => 191 [topic] => 31 [informant] => sandeye75 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )
