Ghost Town
Vibrant activity filled it constant
Day to day it was always active
Never dull, never content
But now it’s ghost town
The joy is gone
The happiness left
Yet time goes on
Leaving only a ghost town
Drops of water hit the ground
Water only weeds and grass now
Making the only sound
In this ghost town
Echo’s from the past blow threw
Stirring up dust and pain
Then the silent returns anew
Just like a ghost town
Visitors come and insight they gain
As they gazing at the emptiness
Only to leave once again
Leaving the ghost town
My sole remains empty
My heart broken and worn
A shell filled with only memories and pity
Just like a ghost town
