A bulb, once shining bright
Started to dim
Briefly in the night
It's power source fades
Turning to brighter lights
As the bulb decays
For a short moment it shines
Again shining bright
Delivering its lines
But no one saw
How it shined so quickly
As of nothing happened at all
So it is taken out
Replaced by a new one
No matter how it may shout
The new bulb, shining brightly
Never will dim
The old chipped slightly
Broken in the trash
With no one
And no more lights flash

A bulb, once shining bright
Started to dim
Briefly in the night
It's power source fades
Turning to brighter lights
As the bulb decays
For a short moment it shines
Again shining bright
Delivering its lines
But no one saw
How it shined so quickly
As of nothing happened at all
So it is taken out
Replaced by a new one
No matter how it may shout
The new bulb, shining brightly
Never will dim
The old chipped slightly
Broken in the trash
With no one
And no more lights flash
