Shades in the shadows

By Imsosickxxx

No time to face the fact, when your back,
Is flat against the wall,
Breathing deep, you can’t help but to keep,
From breaking when you fall.

Spinning fast, I just hope I can last,
Here beneath the spin light.
Papers sigh as we trace, the frail grace
Of one more feigning night.

Whispers glance, and I hope that by chance
Your memory’s consumed
And the ghosts in the grave, you forgave
May one day exhume.
