1.
each time I loose darkness, I look through the walls.
our house is forgotten. childhood invades me. but
darkness is always stronger than ruins: our house.
the sleep of empty drawers breathes inside of me.
I live behind closed windows. silently, my steps
climb up the stairs that lead to darkness: our house.
2.
when will loneliness bring back the hidden road
we once learned by heart? there were books we
could never forget. there were eyes touching us.
when will loneliness be more than smoke? the
brightest fire was in the palm of our hands. there
were flames in the eyes that lead us to this house.
loneliness walks though the corridors. we learn
through written flames and burned out books.
3.
shadows crowl over my shadow. i sit where
you once sit. I took your place when you
went away. forever, someone said.
shadows wisper death among dust. I stay
in the room you once built. I sit in your
chair. forever, the shadows say.

It is not empty, Jose. They are still with you in spirit always. As long as you breathe their memories, they are with you.
