An empty room is sad

without heart or soul

Echoes in the quiet

dark and all alone

An empty room is black

Ebony and grey

Nothing to cast the shadows

Yet no light to chase them away

An empty room is lonely

No one to keep it warm

No voices break the silence

No one there to call it home

But,

 An empty room is full of memories

Things not noticed before 

Glowing stars left on the ceiling 

Forgotten trinkets on the floor
