Ghost Town (acrostic)

Gone, are the people
Hollowed-out their shells
Only memories remain
Staring with invisible eyes
Together

They populate the empty spaces
Outcast spirits
Who haunt
Nobody

All By Myself

They are oblivious
Chattering
Nothing important
Just words

I am bored
Tired of superficial conversation
Frivolous words
Shallow

I long to speak
But know better
They are oblivious by choice

I do not tell them what they don't want to hear
I remain silent
Knowing
All by myself.
