In her bones
As she blew out
the old dusty lamp
she caught
a cold glimpse
of her darkened eyes
staring back
from the ink etched mirror
her life flashes
before her
so many painful regrets
fill her mind
her once
loving words
no longer
carry their existence
as she gently
closes her eyes
for another long
dark filled night
the final
frigid winter
sets deep within
her bones
the old dusty lamp
she caught
a cold glimpse
of her darkened eyes
staring back
from the ink etched mirror
her life flashes
before her
so many painful regrets
fill her mind
her once
loving words
no longer
carry their existence
as she gently
closes her eyes
for another long
dark filled night
the final
frigid winter
sets deep within
her bones

Hey there Journey :)
I love the fluidity of the formatting; it's impactful brevity lends so much to my mind's eye, as I read through your poem. The density of pain and regret fill my thoughts as well as the feeling of deep resignation... Your pen is wicked in it's power to express and emote that darkness we all at times, carry.
I absolutely appreciate this piece and hope to read more....
Thank you for sharing,
