Parameters
Tonight
you brought the ghosts
with you again.
Their whispers
carried by the wind,
or maybe just a lullaby.
The music plays
upon the windowpane
it sounds like death.
I am alone.
Outside in winter chill
the night looks in.
And gathered in my room
with embers burning low,
the clock
is ticking time away
like falling
snow.
