Forgotten Corners

Dust motes swirl in the slanting light’s glow,

ancient treasures hide where the lost memories go.

a trunk full of secrets, cobwebs as shrouds,

whispers of laughter, now buried beneath clouds.


Faded photos, their edges curling and torn,

like pieces of self, from which I am worn.

In this attic of time, I find pieces of me,

hidden stories revealed, finally set free.
