Once full of life, this old building - <br />Memories locked away under layers of dust. <br />Cigarette butts and broken beer bottles <br />Litter the lonely lot. <br /> <br />Once vital and active <br />In the world of mortal men, <br />Now immortal in its skeletal frame - <br />The ghost in the shell of the <br />Abandoned factory <br />Speaks secrets of <br />Long misused tools, <br />Broken cinder blocks, <br />And locked away rooms - <br />Modern ruins and electric tombs <br />Long left behind on this hidden highway - <br />And evermore in urban legend.<br /><br />Owen Johnston<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/abandoned-factory/
