Sunlight shines
|
On the clothes that lay on a chair
|
A desk covered in clutter
|
The floor covered in hair
|
|
It shines on a figure, so thin and frail
|
It shines on his skin, so sick and pale
|
It shines on the wall, where for so long
|
I have stared
|
Breaking the spell of authentic despair
|
|
As my eyes come into focus
|
I turn to face to face the room
|
The movement from the sheets creates a breeze
|
Sweeps the dust from its place
|
|
It so quietly swarms
|
And hangs in the air
|
It shines in the light
|
And makes me aware
|
|
Death is looming in here
|
And it¡¯s getting to you
|
Under dust, over time
|
It has been burying you
|
|
It now stirs up the room
|
As it enters my sight
|
Rising up from the dark
|
From the surface it lies
|
|
As if hinting to me
|
To choose day over night
|
To leave all of this dark
|
And seek the warmth of the light
|
|
Outside this room where my life wastes away
|
Her priorities lie
|
In collecting corks from bottles she plans to make into things
|
