The end is nigh..
So close I can almost touch it,
So close it's with in earshot,
And I long to feel its embrace, I long to feel the end as it caresses my skin
The end is nigh..
For more then just one thing,
The end draws near as I find it harder and harder to sing,
It speaks in hushed whispers and stays shrouded in shadows,
But I can hear it,
Singing it's sweet sweet requiem,
Promising an eternal embrace of protection,
Infinity in darkness,
An eternity in solace.
I long for it.
For a sleep that never ends,
For the ability to rest forever so that maybe if I do awaken one day,
I just might have energy.
It's like the feeling of warmth spreading through me,
I can feel the end and it's comfortable,
Comforting,
It's lovely.
I have finally tasted serenity and I have never been so blessed,
I have never been so humbled,
I have never yearned for anything more then I do this,
I want to believe I can wish upon a star so that I could know this feeling when ever I breathe,
But to wish is to cheat.
The end is nigh,
I have written my own story in my own book,
In the library of life it shall sit unloved and tattered by time, ignored as newer additions come and go,
Sitting silently in the shadows my book, my story, shall stay unknown.
It is a beautiful thing to forget,
To forget is to bring something to an end,
To remember is to embrace the ghost of a memory long gone,
It is but an echo of an existence which left a mark on the world,
Something in which we all wish to do.
When the end draws nigh,
It is up to you if it is only the end of an era,
Or the end forever.
