Colleen’s Weekly #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge No. 108, “Afraid & Grave,” #SynonymsOnly


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…
