Accepting Poems - Poems about Accepting

I’m walking beside a garden of stone stilled angels Their eyes are unmoving But their soul is cowering I’m cut between the heat of the earth, The burning sun and the salty sky I can’t choose the dirt in where I will lie But I can choose the way that I will die There's a towering night overhead With its sword filled...

Mental alerts send shocking images, Of an hourglass void of it's sand. I glance down at my watch in confusion, And see it's missing every hand. Realization begins to dawn on me, And I stagger under vicious blows. I wonder if time is in suspension, As my soul prepares for repose.
