Window Light

bedtime story-

This evening, I sat by an open window
and read till the light was gone and the book
was no more than a part of the darkness.
I could easily have switched on a lamp,
but I wanted to ride this day down into night,
to sit alone and smooth the unreadable page
with the pale gray ghost of my hand.

He opened the door and a woman stood there on the porch with anxious eyes.

May I help you? Says the man.

Eric? There is no Eric in here

No Eric… ? Are you sure? Damn…

Of course I am…

She said nothing more, took two steps back and, just before he closed the door, he seen the depth of the inevitability in her face.

There was nothing to add. Nothing more to say. She had already thought of this possibility but wouldn’t believe it. What she feared the most in the last 6 years was now a reality….

 

Broken Window

Does someone still tell stories of beautiful times spent living in this house… or are the memories buried deep inside and not worth remembering?

A broken window of an abandoned house. Makes me wonder what happened and why, and were there broken dreams as well?
