A Day Like The Last (Free verse) by dragonfly
she can't differentiate night from day
all life in her has passed away
since paradise was sacrificed
a needle drops and disrupts
the silence that has become her vice
and it's one more day like yesterday
one more day like the last
one wonders how she'll make it past
another day like the last
she looks out of the one window
which hasn't been shut for some time
up at the fingernail clipping in the sky
glowing in its artificial light
The sun refuses her invitation
so she's left in the same dark
responsible for the neverending night
and the numbness in her heart
and it's one more day like yesterday
one more day like the last
one wonders if she'll make it past
another day like the last
