In Passing

If you find me,
Don’t remind me.
Take your baggage.
Move on, kindly.

This room still breaths
After you leave.
Windows crackle.
Walls heave.

Calm restored
Along the boards.
Light falls in.
Darkness dims.

I flail around.
Pull up, Push down.
Bending inward
Makes no sound.

Enjoy its' still.
Calms my will.
World spins wild
The hiding child.

Always wanting,
Then it takes.
With no interest 
In my aches.

One day shadows
Won’t be here.
Were they ever
Not so clear
