Just after the ebb and flow
of staying locked for a lifetime
in an earthly connection
comes an unknown
spectre
we can only guess
all those theories
from holy books and men
untested
we go because
we have to
your time is done
and the pulsating final
flourish
leaves behind a memory
shackled to those we love
until they too
must let go
of who we were
when we lived here.
once upon a time.
Author Notes
Fairy Tales come to an end too. 'And they lived happily ever afterlife! ' who knows?
