The end of the chapter
Our life has been written down
And as we say our last lines
We begin to fade out
Silence as we lay there
With a blank, solid stare
Silence as a memory
That we were there
And the pages turn
And the days we pass
All in the end
Will not last
The end comes closer
As the chapters fade
And we are only one
Chapter away
The chapter ends
And we fade away
As we shall be
Written again somedayby Matthew D. Ward
