Vestibule

See the light shine brightly

From the corner of her eye

There is something still running there

Something she's held on to

Even as hope seems to fade

Footsteps shuffle around

Making notes she'll never see

Telling tales 

That have nothing to do 

With a life lived

She smiles wide and states convincingly

I'll soon be found burning bright

My fire screaming through the night

You'll sing my name as I pass by

My light eclipsing

Shadows that fell over me

And I have no doubt now
