Lamentable

I feel I might be missing

There’s a shadow in my place

I’m told he looks a bit like me

But hollow where his heart should be

Just follow him, it’s plain to see

He’s mainly empty space

I fear I may be falling

As I’ve failed to find the ground

We parted ways, a bitter feud

And nothing further soon ensued

I gained a lot of altitude

In just a single bound

I feel as though I’m wearing out

Reserves are running low

Each passing hour I lament

The waste of every second spent

They tumble by without relent

I’m caught up in the flow
