Eternity

Hey guys, here's today's poem. I couldn't find insperation at work today, as we were slammed and I hardly had time to think, so I dug out this unpublished one for your consumption and reading pleasure. Enjoy... for eternity...

Eternity

In the end of time my eyes deceive,

For my heart has refused to believe.

And though we are on the cusp of death's eve,

I fear no end, for thou art with me.

Tis' the blind, rotting eyes of humanity,

that burned this world to the last tree,

that forever scorned and never let be,

that which never should we be left to see.

We lie to ourselves that "Tis' not me,"

"Tis' not possible that this is purgatory!"

And in the end, to say honestly,

we shall all burn for eternity.

But when I begin to doubt and loose sincerity,

thou art with me to maintain my sanity,

Embrace my soul and set me free,

and in the end there shall be just you and me.

Oh my sweet, sweet love lasting eternally,

Tis' the end I hear, marching in severity.

Be mine for eternity...
