"Slumbering Melancholy"

Greg Budig 2021

And just like that

it was all over. 

You never noticed

while it was happening. 

You never stopped just 

to look around at 

everything that was 

sacred and meaningful. 

Memories are like that 

as you grow greyer.

You hang onto things 

you forgot that 

you even had. 

There is an emptiness 

that you never thought 

you would ever feel. 

Slumbering in the 

melancholy. 

Inside you still 

feel a small spark. 

Resting your eyes 

through the weariness 

of the passing time. 

Time being wasted. 

You are not done yet!

The End
