The fading light
I have risen at dawn,
ethereal as a ghost
against the backdrop
of dim light.
My frail physical frame
is no more. Slain by
myself it is thrown
away and wasted.
I am now no one,
yet I see and I hear:
Shades of forgotten
memories and dreams
never to be fullfilled.
Soon this dim light
shall also fade and
nothing will remain.

Interesting. Perhaps this poem has the same effect on most who read it? When I write I can only go after how it makes me feel.
