Haunted Places
Every old house keeps a secret. Explore abandoned homes, forgotten rooms, creaking staircases, and walls that remember those who came before. These poems wander through places where the past is never truly gone.
-
A nameless spirit survives as a cold draft beneath old floorboards, haunting the house with the memory of a human name it forgot.
-
An abandoned house may choose one soul to remember it, and tonight a candle bends toward the answer hiding upstairs.
-
Black-laced branches, a cracked stone step, and a doorway barely touched by candlelight mark a house that does not wish to be fully seen.
-
The candle bows toward an empty doorway before she understands the old house is not as abandoned as it appears.
-
If she disappears, look where ivy devours forgotten houses and the hedge witch sits barefoot among candles, smoke, crows, and wild things.
-
At the edge of forgetting, an old house seems to know the name of the woman sitting beneath its porch with a candle against the dark.
-
Ivy, broken windows, a shivering candle, and one old floorboard make an abandoned house feel less empty than the word suggests.
