It has happened.

The unnamed moment of eternity's demise is here.

The fabric of the world has come undone

and I am frantically gathering threads,

trying to put something solid back together.

But the words are here and gone

uttered and the damages done.

Infinity and promises are smashed

into the tranquility of nirvana

for some priniciples and philosophies.

It has happened before.

The world rebuilt itself from sparks

and fabric was reinvented.

We met again in a frightening room

filled with exaggerated pictures of never.

Forever has expired with one

swift solemn slash

of a gorgeous tongue.

It was only that life was too calm

and no one could define 'Goodbye'.
