how quickly
we can fall from grace
be pushed aside
knocked out of the race
limp quietly
on the sidelines
life passes by
we're killing time
each day continues
the one before
same locked windows
same closed doors
shadows not simply
memories at all
but the only friends
to heed our call
we stand in rains
our own constant tears
covered in perpetual fog
our own constant fears
an ocean vast
of faces known
we are but dust
on winds blown
we are smiles
turned upside down
ignored perpetual
cast constant frowns
