the end of a life
By Lord Kalgalath
So tired of this lonely life
So now I say goodbye
Last sight is of this dagger
I sheathe it in my heart
Lets its aching beat cease
Let my thoughts roam no more
Roaming always to heartache
Returning always to her
Figment of my Imagination
A Dream within a Dream
Cotton Candy Constructs
Blown away in the breeze
Blade pierces Flesh
Blood falls like Rain
Myriad drops of Nothingness
Like a Flood spill forth
My loneliness ebbs with this Life
Draining away, dripping from my Dagger
As my heart stutters and stops...
The beats again, stronger than before
I step back from the ashes,
this old life gone, Dust in the Wind
A new one stretches before me
I take my angels had and walk away,down that long bright path

How do we know there's life after death? How every ending there is a bginning. I have yet to see proof yet. Fact, not just what the bible says.

This is nothing against you, Alacer. Honestly, it was only something I think about day in and day out. If someone can prove me wrong, please do. =-MO-=
