Baneful Breathing
A world better filled with air and dust

Avg Rating: (5)
Life,
Small am I.
Nearly useless
Filling a space above
Better filled with air or dust
I cast a shadow
It has my shape
And bears little less purpose than me
Besieged by darkness
It withers
Leaving only me
And with its absence
I understand
And too enter the darkness
The world moves on
Though I am gone
Better filled with air and dust
