Still Life

Writer's picture: Jarlath BusbyJarlath Busby

Still Life

 

In solemn hues

Greys and blues

Single empty chair

The bottles downed

Sorrows drowned

Aura of despair

 

A broken heart

Souls apart

Shroud of leaden sky

Through glass and grime

Marking time

As the world goes by

You create a scene a story and a mood which perfectly match the picture. I love the lines'aura of despair' and 'through glass and grime'

Wonderfully written. Love the title. Helped writer's block. Still not going to submit the challenge this month.
