How Is It Going To End

We can deny the script writers if we want we can deny the freedom fighters if we want we can deny the proof of our eyes we can see exactly what we want we can pretend it's better we can deny it's worse we can aspire to something much higher or fall to the pit we can promise or curse if we want we can deny ourselves or someone else we can fall to hate and deny the power of love What we cannot deny is the inevitable ending its always coming always becoming one way or another it's always there on the path as inescapable as forever and forever is just around the corner of another day is it possible then to live this END another way If certainty was ever so poignant does it haunt us scare us into cognitive dissonance make us cling to this thread and never savor its weave of life And if we know this and we feel this as it disturbs our peace and itches beneath our conscience Can we live with this this END and live the end another way
