Crimson lake chronicles ! {IBMC 06/10}

IBMC #06: The Mass Media Challenge

This is my sixth post for IBMC. It involves writing something inspired by the poem, picture and the word.

Poem:
In,
search of skin,
color no matter,
brighter or darker,
tell no one,
I will take someone,
Ssssshhhhh!
–  ghost, me!

Word:
Telephone

Picture:

If you’ve followed my previous posts, you would know that I’m more comfortable with poetry as compared to fiction. So here’s my piece.

---

The crimson lake lit up with colors,

sunset always made her world seem fuller,

living alone in a lakeside mansion,

passing her time with no real tension,

talked to him daily on the telephone

even though he wasn’t skin and bones,

a faction of her imagination,

as real as a dream and a hope for flotation,

she would speak and speak for hours on end,

never realizing she herself was her only true friend,

In search of another soul, old or new,

why no one talked to her, she never had a clue,

a ghost living with a ghost, as his lawfully wedded wife,

a usual setting, her normal life !
