Death "the Final Frontier"
DEATH: “The Final Frontier”
As far as the naked eye could see
Death with force was there to be
Treasuring in its heart the cries of a score
It has no longing yet longs for more
A reality, a trial that stands apart
None shall dare to stop the cart
As relentless & overpowering as it may seem
It bore an end to my beautiful dream
And the time finally came when the curtains were drawn
The sun kept shining, but without a dawn
Its taste, as humble as its daunting fragrance
Was nothing but a witness to its haunting presence
Such was the splendor of this magnificent feast
Ultimate peace, to say the least
With nothing at all then left for me
Death my dear was there to be
