A GOOD GAME

I climbed those stairs 

Knowing every place where it creaked 

There was a ghastly silence 

Looked door 

Reveled itself 

Only when i tried the second time

Dust covered every corner 

My breath was soaked in the lifeless room 

Every detail similar to memory 

Just like a place which awaited

7 years for me to return 

I placed the striker on the board ready 

To fall in the bliss of nostalgia 

The footsteps

Grew louder

And louder

Transfixed at the shadow, 

My eyes dared to move only when i saw her face 

For the next uncountable moments 

We played on that table 

Match after match 

The light bulb above flickered 

Pitch black and deep silence 

In that locked room 

When the lights came on 

Scratched on the table "Good game "

Not a living soul in that building except me!!

Never that way, never again

Its been years down that road 

It still hurts 

When someone plucks those nerves again 

Tried everyway 

To use as an armor 

So nobody could ever hurt me again 

It seems though 

Those words are scribbled on my skin 

It burns every time you look 

It burns every time you enter my thoughts 

It burns every time 

Left to be a scar 

I agree not to change 

Reminds me everytime 

Never will i go down that road again.
