The End Is Nigh
For most the end is but a mere speck on the distant horizon
alas for me I sense it looming ominously near
I see it lingering through hazy shades of fear
Oh my beloved! For me, shed not a single tear
For I shall charge bravely into battle before giving up the ghost
clad heavily in armour and clutching spear
I beseech of thee to not pity my plight my dear
instead cry out 'let the battle commence' with gleeful cheer
and as you gaze upon glistening stars in the mournful night sky
glancing memories shared of you and of I
seek comfort in having knowledge that the end is nigh
for you have been blessed with the gift of a final goodbye.
