Smoky Hues

The doors were smoky opened etheral right and left compartments. I could see patterns, corridors and rooms arranged to the right and left of me. There was my Wailing Room many tears inside weeping walls that caterwauled. My Loves next in hues rosette most past some present; their glow  shimmered to me all the way outside in the corridor. Mine eyes covered as I passed my Room of Sorrows and Regrets shivering to see faces there those I'd wronged or mislead, yet relieved to see Repentments next where Attonements were arrayed upon the walls and Just Due Parchments signed and sealed  delivered to Justice at my behest. I did make some things right. Upstairs were my Best Regards in alcoves 'round near my Heart very soft in there many things done right and proud. I'm now down to Rankling Sins its door ajar with Gamblements Unexcusables and Dark Things there, unspeakable really. Oh everytime I make this trip my energy's wan and spin and I make my vow to next time  make it a more pleasant trip through this my Soul's House.
