Omega

Shedding like a snake’s skin
To ashes from a spontaneous combustion
And shattered like a Stone Age temple
Into the tombs of all the once-living
Faded, the passion of a Golden
Lost, a coin in the ocean
Brief as a tear in the desert
Without worth, a chord to the deaf
Beyond color, a rose at midnight

Beyond hope
Our last moment together
