The End And The Beginning
A poem about the one true thing connecting us all.
That long walk as it chases you down
A sun-shining day turns to one so dreary
A head filled, so loud is the sound
Your inners begin to feel eerie
What words did he say
Not just words they were, as they tore through you
Like stone anvils they weigh
Leaving you not knowing what to do
They say it's all a part of a plan
But you're being robbed of your one true gem
Whether they know it, it's paid by every man
And painful it is to know you'll be paying it ahead of them
So, go on and live each day like the last
Take a moment to enjoy, smell the roses if you will
Don't fret it all went so fast
We'll all catch up and have to pay that bill
Life's a bitch
And then you die
Your spirit soars in a cinch
Into the heavens it'll fly
