Life

Life

Figured it out

 

Let me know

If you do

 

Cause I sure

Could use a clue

 

Sometimes

It seems

So clear

 

Beyond the blue

 

Like there are no

Graves of gray

 

But birthdays

Have a way

Of blowing out

The candles

On your cake

 

As you sit

There in the dark

Waiting for a slice

 

There is no frenzy

For the frosting

 

Forks replace

The fingers

 

On a small square

 

Mumble

How good it is

 

Let the joke

Be you

 

But when

The party’s over

 

And all is quiet

In the house

 

You roam from

room to room

 

Aimless as

A broken arrow

 

Until you find

Your bed

 

Sit on the side

And sigh

 

Another year

Gone by
