An empty chair

An empty chair,

recently vacated,

felt much welcoming,

to a visiting person... 


With a sense of familiarity, 

that's difficult to ascertain, 

from residual heat emitted,

by the previous occupier. 


In the outline, on the surface,

things we feel, with our epidermis,

acting as a reminder, of the time,

the seat was thriving, was alive. 


Was abandoned, being left aside,

still carried memories, of their life,

as it awaits, to serve new master,

and release energy, that it absorbed. 


The stories it contained,

being an empty chair,

conveyed through our senses,

in momentary releases...

Of lingering warmth.
