I see it, the mirror
I see it, my face
How long I’ve left?
It’s my mistakes
I can’t even blame
The Lord for theft
Asinine I was then
Left all riches I had
For a love untrue
When she left me
I lost it all, my love
Befriended by few
I drowned gloom
In bottles so many
Count I have forgot
My old life, return
Yet pride took over
Became the plot
Now I live, do I still?
All luster lost to life
Desires so far away
Thankful, it’ll end
Not much time left
Perhaps, a last day
Am nearly there
Nearly there now
Trip will end soon
Like a dream tale
I lie there, dusted
Like hollow moon
