"For hands that go right through me
Their grip sure left a mark
As I wander through this haunted house
That whispers in the dark

I suffocate in all its words
Nearly crushed under the weight,
Of all those untold feelings
That were left a little late.

The walls threaten to crack open
Just to speak a word or two
They said the house was empty
But I'm not so sure that's true

It's so packed full with words
That never had the chance to be,
Left to roam throughout the house,
Hardly leaving room for me

And the weight of all the words
I'll leave behind here when I go,
Of all those pleas and all those feelings,
That I was too scared to show

So I'll hide behind the sound
Of every chandelier that falls
'Till I'm just another whisper
Of the ghosts haunting these halls."



-Arabella Katt (xCaptainCl3mentinex)
