The Way It Ends

I open my eyes just to greet the sunshine,

But he says he will not shine-

For the day has ended

In a certain moment

When a pride costs more.

I say not a word yet

My rose is sinking

I watch,-


Mom cries in a grief-stricken cry

To see me kiss the rain

“It’s the moon” she defines—

My lips move not anyway

Until dust to dust

And time forgets the name on the tomb-

That’s the way it ends.
