ENDINGS

 

Always taking a swipe at me

Aiming for my complacency

For my compliance and my character

Sometimes those endings are minor, simple

A transition from one place to the next

A flow so simple, you barely feel the wave

Your feet gently tickled

As you a take your step.

Sometimes the earth is shattered

All you knew or thought you believed

Is dismantled

Destroyed

Obliterated

Naked and wounded

You are left with the aftermath

A puzzle

An accountability

An inevitably

 

Historically, hauntingly

Your ending transforms

Transmutes

A beginning

The pieces come together

The ruins are swept away

Your challenge apparent

To begin anew.

 

Your ending was just a beginning
