After All

After all is said and done I am left
After all the sex and love I am done
After all the talk and silence I am gone
After all the gestures and laughter I am alone 
After all the pain and again I am not rested 
After all whatever and forever I am startled 
After all this hardship I must cope

I am done with this chaos
Though starting a new is even harder
And this might be life and death to my soul
After all, after all, I am:

LEFT
DONE
GONE
ALONE
NOT RESTED
STARTLED

Which I
Through all

I MUST COPE
