She is a shadow of what she used to be, the traces of her grandeur echo in the shifting light.
Music plays, we dance and sing, die and weep.
Bound to her, I drift in the shadows, longing for the past

Your piece makes me think of grand balls in the ’20s and ’30s, somehow. I’m sure the photo adds to that image in my head. Nicely done!

Is this personification of the house? I like the idea of the spirit of the house tied to the actual house, while longing for what it used to be, the people who used to live there. Great tale. ❤

Yes or perhaps the ghost of a person tied to the house. I had both in mind as I wrote. Glad you liked it.
