In a cold bitter room
With dirt on the pane
And scars on the floor
I live it all again.
I see where each piece stood
Monument to lack,
Hear the slamming door,
Know you'll never come back.
Out in the wind seagulls,
Seagulls are curling.
Down on the sand waves,
The slow waves are furling.
There's a room in my mind
With scars on the floor
And it's empty now
So I've shut tight the door.
I'm walking on the beach
For something sad looms.
I've nothing to lose,
Just those two empty rooms.
Wonderful job here. You expressed yourself very well. Keep up the good work!

Chris,
this verse conveys the sense of someone on the threshold of moving on. Nicely stated.
