Ripples

The lights are still here
Though  they flicker as if they want to leave
And  I'm still here
Passing as days
Months spiral
The  water isn't still here
The  ripples are echoes
Of malice
Reverberates
Without diffusing
Without ending

And I'm still here
And  I'm still here
I'm still here

Circling
Feeding back
Unbroken routines
Everything
Misplaced
As it always has been

And I'm still here
