By Zahra P., Lincoln, MA
Daylight is stored in hidden attics,
where the ghosts of little children
trapped inside ancient cobwebs
shriek.
Darkness is painted
by madmen
with spiked maroon hair
who hold thick black candles,
that burn in the wind
and leave behind the scent of gothic cathedrals.
This piece has also been published in Teen Ink's monthly print magazine.
