Cold Alley

Damp, 
inhabitants of death, lurk, hate gives it its mood, as odor 
fills it. 
Depression often strikes. 
Welcome, 
to the heartland of my soul, 
"Isn’t it pretty?" 
...the ever welcomed; 
love, true friendship, happiness; 
never come to this seemingly unwelcoming place. 
So loneliness 
makes itself 
a home. 
Many peak into the opening of this place, 
but, often 
leave scared, violated and hated. 
Strangers, often, don’t know 
what they are getting themselves into, 
when, 
they violate 
this place. 
My property trampled on. 
Graffiti on the two walls 
of this one-sided place. 
Punishment deserved, 
but, often, 
misdirected. 
Hate from this place often strikes 
those who 
violate. 
When they leave this place of hate, 
they close the fenced door of this cold alley way 
and told to 
" Never come back.", 
as loneliness comes back 
into 
track.
