Reflections in Mine Own Calamity

Twenty two years No fun, no revelry, no fame Twenty two, nine years past thirteen No more hope No more dreams Like the match brightly lit Illuminating the darkened corner of the room Slowly fading as its snuffed out As the flame meets with the end of its stick And so it is that that which is by my own guilt and pain For the you can’t change the past but strive for a better tomorrow Yet the future is all to much the same. Nothing more now for all that’s left is time Watching left hand move forward As the days of my future Slowly fall by the wayside Its pain of the morrow The feeling that persists The edge that tears the hole The demise of any hope thats left.
