Something to think about life and death...

The Truth of The End

 

Heavy hearted

Stopped then Started

Heartbeat fading

Run away

From this end ever nearing

The safe path now veering

Off an icy cliff

So you jump and you pray

Hold fast to the surface

And hope it’s all worth this

But now who can save you

Since you’ve gone astray

There’s no one and nothing

This life to which you cling

Finds its resolution

In Darkness we lay

Our own deaths we die

No escape, no more lies

Just admit that it’s over

And Truthful we’ll stay

I like this poem too, awesome job! We all try so hard to cling to our fragile lives, but all good things must come to an end. The images describing this were very well done.

Thank you very much:)
There is no resolution in darkness! And since we're the one who mentally destroys us, we're the only one that can save us. I love that beyond your sorrowful and depressing ink, your message has hope in it! Many may not see it, but I do! Nicely penned! :)
