When the lights went out (Elegy poem)
All at once, the lights went out
Nothing made sense anymore
The lights were so bright at first
Now there is only darkness if only the LED lights could replace the old ones
I keep trying to turn the lights back on, flicker, flicker, flicker
but nothing works
The old lights just, I just want them back
I try to persevere without the lights
Why is everything so hard
I Can’t function. Where is everything
Where did everyone go
I try to let the light into the room
But it is too dim to make a difference now
Maybe it’ll grow brighter later
But for now, I’m stuck in the dark.
