Ending Lesson
how has it come to this
to love and lose
for the last time
to learn a brutal lesson
that there is no place with the living
for a true beating heart
when the dream was so beautiful
peace, so close at hand
and the knife that slid
between shoulder blades
so dull
to be sacrificed to selfishness
as so many before
and so many to follow
with the miracles man has preformed
how have we not learned to love equally?
yet
even hell has it's season
and this is it's glory today
