A lonely chair
A vacant, unoccupied, untenanted, deserted, abandoned, empty chair
Laughter reeks in the paneling
The essence screams her name
Always reminding me, reminding me of her
The girl
The girl who laughed, sang, ran, danced, spun, smiled
The girl who is no longer there
The girl who ran away
The girl who got locked up
The girl who is so much different
A stranger
A stranger who scowl’s, cries, screams, hits, kills
A stranger who is enraged
The girl who laughed and smiled is lost
The stranger takes hold
Away they are taken
Together they go
Along there own road
A road without a chair
A road away from happiness
A road away from me
Away from the people the girl loves
The people the stranger hates
Leaving only a chair
An empty, lonely chair

I just looked at a picture of an empty chair and it inspired me to write this!
