Migration
I owned it.
As it dawned on me.
Hopelessness!
Sudden realization, of a deed.
Long time acoming - It was.
Awhile lingered - On its way.
Yet, inevitably approached.
Unkind fate.
Doom! I was wedded to.
Why resist its call?
Thus extend, my agony.
Waiting, expecting - Fearing!
To fall - Ever and again.
Why not cease?
Surrender.
Meet my fate.
Head-on charge.
Into thee, Oblivion.
Why do you linger on?
Unwanted hope.
Insidious friend!
Please, let me go.
Fall into abyss.
Find peace, at last!
To what end? Benefit.
Will this teeter - Tooter.
On the brink of darkness bring.
Ever deeper, tempting its call.
So I wail, resist it.
Believe on us - Love!
Doubt - My very ability.
To see, touch you again.
Hear thy breath.
Beating, of hearts.
Brought together.
Just once more.
These measures, of life.
Once belonged.
Sang with us.
