Failing Light from Shaking Loose by Guy Capecelatro III

Failing Light

Slowing down to catch my breath
I don’t know what you expect
There’s this hollow in my bones
A glitch inside my chromosomes

I’m never sure of what I’m doing
Is this what passes now for human

Unread books and magazines
It’s so hard to keep it clean
Staring through the frosted glass
Seasons turning lightning fast

Let me introduce myself
I’m gone

Help me get back to the fold
Nothing ever fills this hole
Someone somewhere knows a trick
A strategy to give a shit

I’m burning both ends of the candle
There’s always something to dismantle

How am I so unprepared
I can barely breathe this air
A little leaving might suffice
Hold me in this failing light

Let me introduce myself
I’m gone
