Your Story

Come sit with me for a while and I'll tell you your story. It won't take long. I've watched from afar and have stood by your side. I know all the details:  the hollow dreams the heartfelt wishes the prayers the loneliness I'm the only one who understands; the only one who has shared your burden Come sit with me  now. Share my blanket, throw it over your shoulders and melt into it's warm embrace. Soon it'll all be over. Your ears will rush then fall silent. Your thoughts will scatter then disappear. Your mind will clench and then relax and in that moment that very last moment, your story will end.
