Erasable Lines
In the dark of light
I struggle with those
Those of whom
I cannot find
Lost in space
I search for days
Looking to reclaim
Anything of the lost
Anything of their face
Vague recollections
Dim reflections
Losing colors
Shapes and lines
Is this all I can find
The inkblots in my mind
When all is lost
To the winds of time
Erode away all
But those seared
Painful memories
Long gone by
Am I fine
When everyone is gone
All faded from my mind
Faces no longer mine
As they fade
Dark becomes light
Erasable lines
