Here, at the end of all time and reason
In the limitless fog of life
I can stand at last and say
I loved this man. It is finished.
With mist lapping at my ankles
Like the swirling of a skirt
All the times we fought and loved
Raced onward to the end of everything.

All lies in ruins at my feet.
Below me - light dawns before me -
For all that is below me, beneath!
My outstretched arms to embrace
Life anew, as mists ebb away
And reveal a beginning,
A new day and reason to live anew.

optimistic

Old things have passed away ~ this is a new day.

~~

Coming out of the fog of

Oppressive indifference or any other equally painful knife;

Life's future beckons promisingly.

Very powerful imagery!

A tightly focused look at the transitions in life and the eternal hope for a future.
