Nowhere to be found

It was easy enough to get inside

It was easy enough to get inside,
since you left the place unlocked.

An eyeball, a nosey:

Keepsakes,
ornaments,
knick-knacks and
lucky charms.

Sea-glass,
driftwood,
rusted metal sculptures and
holey pebbles.

Posters,
paintings,
pictures in gilt frames and
snapshots.

I read your Diaries,
opened your cupboards,
examined the contents of your bathroom cabinet.

You were nowhere to be found.
