Vacancy

[chalicerae]

Something happened here.
Days become nights and
I'm still waiting.
An anchor, a hand
holds me steadfast;
my will overcome.
I can't break free.

Something happened here.
I leave the room
but memories follow.
I can't run, can't hide
from this haunt;
my mind spellbound.
The scars won't fade.

Something happened here.
Burn it to the ground
and piss on the ashes.
Walking, crossing
the lines I've drawn;
my heart hollowed.
You're dead to me.
