i walked these shoes to death

1.
At 23 its hard to see The flicker of a light The dripping of a candle Going out into the night At ninety Stealing breathes between Succumbing to The world His Room is like a painting Seeing visitors in turn The Neighbour's bed is made A Stark reminder of the grave After a while he'd ask the time I'd check my phone Pretend its late I'd best be home Now Goodbye is too hard to say He calls "good luck" I answer the same Two decades too late to ever emend Not being around enough In the end But never again I sat beside a window Thinking better of myself Inherited ambitions Gather dust upon a shelf The daisy sweating seeds While Wilting in the heat "I walked these shoes to death Bloody laces on the steps Of the church where I decided I would die At last but long prepared I'd watch the moon eat up the light Every colour held in tight A kaleidoscope turned white The Niling of a breath That quivers to its death"
