Another Life
Closing my eyes
welcoming the endless sleep
Tired and weary
entering the deepest deep
The shroud of warmth
a pleasure to the ghastly end
Caressing, coaxing me
as if a long, lost friend
The clouded watery tomb
softly enveloping me
Giving me pause
however brief it may be
The signs, the signs
visible and always present
The world being blind
to another young life, misspent.
