At the End

WHEN THE SOUNDS NO LONGER REACH MY EARS,
WHEN MY SKIN CAN LONGER RESPOND TO THE UV RAYS,
WHEN MY LUNGS CEASE TO EXPAND.

WHEN MY HAIR BECOMES DREADFULLY DRY,
WITH MY HEART BEATING AT A SLOWER RATE,
AND THATS WHEN MY PUPIL NO LONGER RESPONDS TO LIGHT.

WILL I HEAR A LOUD VOICE LAUGHING FROM FAR,
ALL THIS TIME I THOUGHT I WAS IN CONTROL,
THE WORLD SIMINGLY REVOLVED AROUND MY CLOCK,
UNTILL THIS VERY MOMENT.

IM ASKED JUST HOW LONG DID I THINK IT WOULD LAST?
IM ASKED WHY I TOOK FOR GRANTED ALL THE IMPORTANT THINGS IN LIFE,
WHY I UNGRATEFULLY LIVED FROM ONE MOMENT TO ANOTHER?

I GUESS I FORGOT THAT IT WAS ALL MERCY,
TOOK IT FOR GRANTED,
I THOUGHT I DESERVED IT ALL,
FORGOT THAT IT WAS FAVOUR.

MASTER I REPENT,
PLEASE LET ME SEE THE MOON JUST ONCE MORE,
ALLOW ME TO TOUCH MY SKIN AND BE THANKFULL,
LET ME APPRECIATE THE RARE TASTE OF YOUR WATERS,
AND RESPECT THE GROUNDS THAT NOURISHED MY FLESH.

“THE DOORS OF LIFE HAVE CEASED TO EXIST”
“YOU HAVE MET YOUR END”.

Speak Your Mind
