No Company

There's a hole where light once stood

Where adventure nodded

and applauded my neglect of apathy

Where I was happy or at least delusional

but that ship has sailed

it's just the hole and I,

It keeps me at night 

so as to tell me magnificent lies 

then throws it's arm like a wrecking ball

draped across my shoulders

but the weight is all I can remember.

It dismembers me and what you see now is a shadow

casting a reflection of flesh

with no dreams.
