Replying to a comment on:

Darker Days (Free verse) by oneglove

Memories in steamer trunks Absorbing dirt and grime The tingeing of their corners Seem to brighten darker times Look beneath your memories Her short black dress, long walks in spring Look past smiles and bleeding skies Find your lover’s tear stained eyes Twin sapphires set in snow Look like a murder scene Once they screamed 'I love you' Now they only scream

Once I read this poem a couple of times & also read the other comments on it, I see, I see. Very metaphorical, very well thought-out...like a heist or "murder scene" even. A great read none-the-less with deep metaphor, dramatic theme, words that grab, short but punctual. Emily Dickinson style. Great read!
