Fading End


Scariest truth that is always unspoken,

Death they say is a mystery unbroken

Proves it has a mind of its own unchartered,

Cannot predict, cannot prepare this journey so encountered

With a blink, the soul unhinged moves forward,

Leaving happiness, dreams, pain & sorrow so hollow,

Unlatched gone with no reason to justify the sorrow

Clutching and turning hourglass to rewind,

Living holds on to stories that entwined

Flipping those pages of regret untold,

Wars we fought, shoulders we hold

But time is a healer, and tears dry up

Life moves on with the daily humdrum

Pain fades away, but memory stays on.
