The End ?

Gather the stars into tales of romance from days gone by

Shed tears for the beginnings and endings of the past

Tell me stories of long lost loves

And nights filled with passion you can't forget

Lament those days that are filled with regret

For things undone and words unsaid

Speak to me of everything and nothing

Till the sun sets in the west and rises in the east

Keep talking , keep talking

Until you have no words left to say

Except the words that you haven't said

The final telling of our tale

The way it all ended 

Why ? you ask 

I will tell you why

Our tale was written in pencil

And I have erased it all

And started over

With a blank piece of paper

And a new sharpened pencil

I will write, and write 

And erase what is wrong 

Until I run out of paper, and run out of lead

Then I will write our story in the sand

Until the end of time

And on into Forever

So don't speak of  The End of our story

It does not exist

    1. The images are wonderful and the voice, the narrative, is so strong - it drives forward with a powerful, confident rhythm.

  2. Wow. I love this! "A story with no end, just seems to bend. A beginning that was there to lend, around and around flowing to send."
