poor person must have had a heart attack as he was reading the book....we never know when are last breath will be.... that is a good thing and a sad thing...if we go quickly.... but if we don't it's a real conundrum....

running so low on life once fueled but must never give up. to live is a flame so strong. the cold wind blows as it is blown out but in that wind will carry a memory. a memory of love, loss, and rebirth. thank you.

A reminder dear j, that each one of us has our own book and we don’t know the page number that will be our ending. All things pass and that is the inevitability of our existence. All of us will go in time. A sad poem.

Yes, as George Harrison sang..."All things must pass"---
We all run out of time, of words to write and to read. In the end, we're found, with things we loved doing but doing them no more. This is such a sad poem, my friend. It speaks to me of how quietly it all ends. Nothing shakes or shatters. The '....' extending into the unknown.
