Dim Light

A Poem by Eliott

Bath’s run cold again. Comfort source is gone. It was perfect getting in. Now everything’s gone wrong. Everything I trust is only disappointing. I wish that I could learn to stop. I’m too stubborn to give up yet.

Take it all away from me and strip me down. What have I got left? Is this what it’s about? Everyone has it all figured out, but I’m just now starting to doubt. I am without all I’ve had now. Relight; burn bright. Don’t let it go out. ‘Cause I’m without all I’ve had now.

Bath’s cold, sleep’s far away. Comfort ended yesterday. Close my eyes, head pounds, throbs, aches. More than that, my heart breaks. Everything I trust is only disappearing. Wish this light would stop blinding me. I haven’t given up yet.

Take it all away from me and strip me down. What have I got left? Is this what it’s about? Everyone has it all figured out, but I’m just now starting to doubt. I am without all I’ve had now. Relight; burn bright. Don’t let it go out. ‘Cause I’m without all I need now.

Take my hand and show me how you live, and why. I’m starting to question life. Take my hand and show me how to live, and why. Why should I even try?

Take it all away from me. Strip me down. I’ve got nothing left. Is this all it’s about? Everyone has it all figured out, but I’m learning who I really am now. ‘Cause I’m without all I loved now. I am just now learning to doubt, because my light is burning out.
