only human

Head spins

As thoughts crowd in

Jumbling up the narrative

We set our sights upon

Here we rest

On the brink of nothing

Seeking something

Illusive

Can we find its name

Or did the truth of it disappear

With every single ounce of pain

We refused to feel

There is no way to change

The past

We see it through a darkening glass

As doubt and lack of presence grow

Sending up these shadows

But maybe light consists in this

Hard won revelation

We did the best we could

If only we would

Accept the simple truth

We are only human
