Just one minaret
Towers over us
Backlit in dull amber
Through thick smoke
With casual demeanour
We mill about
As though we’ve forgotten
This place’s exalted status
It’s majesty
Now somewhat diminished
Tag: diminished
Diminished
Your light has dimmed
Become a moon
Which once was sun
In brighter skies
Become a moon
Which once was sun
In brighter skies
And in your eyes
I see you know
Feel the shadow
Across your soul
Confused you are
By your confusion
Where once you knew
Some clarity
As time and mind
Slip from you
So too do you
Slip from me
