Poem: Memories

Memories
Broken windowpanes on a sun-bright afternoon,
I shouldn’t have come back.
Back to the shattered memories,
Back to the hope childhood;
Overturned chairs on a hardwood floor.
I used to wait here,
When the windowpane was whole
When the chair was upright
When the memories weren’t memories,
They were life.
I used to wait here,
And now it is waiting for me.


Author's note: This was based off of a picture prompt of an old, abandoned attic. Sometimes it's hard to go back home.
