SHADOWS

By LaShonda Powell (sent to LaFemme)

There are scary things

That lurk in the corners

That bump and creak in the shadows

There are clouds that chill

The damp hallways

Filling the cracks beneath the doors

Muffling the sadness

Stifling the sobs

An odor like flowers at a funeral

Floats inches above the floor

Sweet fragrance of death

Sticking to the skin

Mixing with the sweat of fear

They say that smell

Is close to taste

It is bitter, and I must swallow

Eyes closed, arms folded

Kids I never knew

Lie curled in tight circles

Dreaming of better times

There is a small square room

In the corner of my heart

It lies behind a door

I hope I never open
