you
you think this a lot
with emphasis
a one word blame
disappointment, you suppose
but you don't think it at other people
oh,
oh, they're fine.
its you
because what the *****
is wrong with you
you still haven't figured that bit out yet
bit by bit
you lose yourself
things you were
things you did
they're gone now
maybe you remember them
maybe you don't
(you think you don't)
you think there used to be so much more
but now
now it's just you
waiting in the parking lot
pavement cracked and covered in chewing gum
the lights flickering
like fires among the rows of houses
flickering like candles put out in a rush during a black-out
and you're staring at these lights
waiting
watching them flicker
flicker
flicker
until its the
last
light
out
