Letras
Ghostly shadows accent absent black eyes
Set on the distant affirmations they seek
They stare past us into the very old skies
Red beads form on their cracked lips as they speak
Lives grow less and less, Lady Time will plunder
Looking back, how can we learn to ignore it?
What winnings does eternity hold they wonder
When each day mirrors the one before it?
Their eyes can see the qualms that assail us
Our motions have lost their ease, our skin that pearly glow
Voices are old and our memories fail us
But time heeds so little in her daunting flow
