This is my entry for Sue Vincent’s Thursday Photo Prompt.
Stormy skies matched the house. The scene, perfect monochrome.
As she approached she asked herself when did this place cease to be a home.
Times of banquets, times of joy
Times to be bold, times to be coy.
Fearsome battles and subdefuse
Choose your side wisely or you will lose.
Secrets hidden within these walls
Footstep echos of ghosts in the halls.
Children’s voices long since hushed
Love affairs and feuds all crushed.
The house grows old , she alone will remain.
Bound by fate to watch in pain.
Stormy skies matched the house. The scene monochrome.
When did this place cease to be a home.

You have been visited by the spirits of your workshop, I think. Epic 🙂

It was and I am struggling to express it all with the wonder it deserves 💜

I can feel a difference in your writing. I don’t think I’m imagining it.
May 02, 2019 @ 12:47:32
It’s strange everyone there told me I would grow and that I will change.💜

I am the same age as the house I’m living in and thank goodness I’m aging better than it. My dream is to live in a new place in my dotage.

Creepily well-done! I feel the left-along spirit’s sadness and true puzzlement of what went wrong, and where everyone went. I do feel that homes feel abandoned when their owners leave.
May 03, 2019 @ 12:35:23
Yes I do too, I often feel that they may feel abandoned , thank you for reading 💜 💜
