The House of Dust
Down in the backwoods,
There's a large house
Filled with memories and distraught
Abandoned, misunderstood
Sheets covered the furniture,
The stairs are giving way
The walls stained,
The floors filled with decay
But all I see is marble,
A Victorian style home
It holds empty thoughts,
It's now a lifeless tomb
I once saw a joyful spirit
Which turned into tainted hearts
These four walls held secrets
It's foundation had fallen apart
As I leave I turn around,
My heart clenches at the sight of us
Our family fell apart
In the House of Dust
