World

Gone by

Time entombed

Webs hang thin white

The walls dripped pain loss

Risky to touch the past

To Heaven unsafe, fearful

Being undone by my past thought

Crushed by fear, the light grows dimmer

I see faces from the past, dead, long gone…

    Well done! I love the mournful tone of the Etheree. Samhain is all about the ancestors and you captured that perfectly. <3
