SHADOWS FLICKER
Smoke is taking over
the last little room
I have left
I think about the fireplace
and the place I used to rest
I wonder 'where did I go
and just what's left
of me
as the shadows flicker
through a tiny window
pain is all I see

I lay my head down now
is what I would like to say
because when I do
is when they want to play
I can't get anywhere
doesn't matter if I try...
