Resounding echos

Oblivion awaits,

small purpose and a guttering flame hold the rain back,

no footsteps in the sands of time

and the murk green veil grows thin.

A pretty smile and kindly wind

blows life into a slow beating shard.

To learn to swim one must be cast into the river

and to learn to fight one must have nothing left to lose.

Fear not the reaper,

fear not the child,

fear not the step into the dark

for it is better to see this way.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

No more dreams, only the dim light of the faded Morn to guide my way
