No need to jump the queue
Thinning hairs lost youth
times grey, sent to displease
clouded insights focus blighted
a stature so reduced
The echo's of the graveyard
half forgotten past
shadows cast so uninvited
the last Swallow that dives
Walk a black horizon
no need to jump the queue
the ledger exclamation just a hyphen
phoenix spirit just candle lit
times grey, sent to displease
clouded insights focus blighted
a stature so reduced
The echo's of the graveyard
half forgotten past
shadows cast so uninvited
the last Swallow that dives
Walk a black horizon
no need to jump the queue
the ledger exclamation just a hyphen
phoenix spirit just candle lit
