The eerie silence of the lake
Stifling breaths choking it rakes
Devoid of any movement sans breeze
Stillness of the swing heart freezes
Reminiscing our hearty laughter
Vivid images of us together
Sitting beside each other swinging
The love songs merrily singing
Meticulosly planning our tomorrows
Promising joy abandoning thoughts of sorrows
Never imagined losing you to fate
Never will I see you even though I hate
Living alone without you is hard my dear
The eerie silence of the lake is all I hear

An atmospheric piece laden with psychological horror tropes that evoke classic Hollywood Noir movies of the ’40s and ’50s.
