MURMUR

nephilim56 ( Norman Dickson)

Can you hear ?
Yes but faintly
Footsteps in
The empty room
A murmur
Not a sigh
Amongst the dust
And falling gloom.

A certain flicker
Of the lights
In the corridor
That leads
To the whisper
Of your doubts
A heartbeat
Gently breathes.

Ever closer
To your fears
Locked within
A frozen dream
Reaching for
The door handle
Slowly turning
To reveal !
