Question
Guest
Many have walked over me
their entire lives.
As have their children,
husbands and wives.
Though they can't see me
don't mean I'm not there.
History left me dark,
so please do not stair.
Some sort of disaster -
maybe natural, maybe not,
forced you to climb
and leave me to rot.
Old, so very old,
and sometimes I reek -
but if you're desolate,
could be me that you seek.
