The Suitcase by Otter14

Screen Shot 2017-11-08 at 20.45.12As the ancient suitcase was full,
The man was empty,
His guilt locked inside the lonely case
With his family.
His heart was broken
Like his battered suitcase.
Sat there for days,
Waiting for a forgotten man
To drag it into the black hole
Of the future.

Abandoned and tense,
The suitcase waited,
Waiting for the family to be reunited.
The memories inside,
Excited to be opened again.
Thinking about the hands that had been on it.
The dejected girl,
The lonely mother.
Wishing the time would fly by
Until they saw him again.

The Suitcase by Toucan16

Screen Shot 2017-11-08 at 20.45.12Covered by a blanket of guilt,
The battered case
Felt a tear-stained hand
Rummaging around,
Exposing his subdued memories.
Family photos faded in the sadness,
Feeling empty and torn,
The case saw an ancient bowler hat,
His eyes captured the future,
The past,
And the present.

The Suitcase by Iguana24

Dejected,
The suitcase bitter and confused,
Anxious of its destination,
Remorselessly trying to grasp sanity,
Determined to grab freedom.
Tormenting itself,
Restless and torn,
It wanders into the abyss,
Brimming with rapturous memories.
