THE LAST DAY

Everything that shines always has a shadow,

so take us down, deep inside,
where the abyss is bright
and before it blinds us,
we'll see for the very first time

But when we step out of our graves,
before we reach into the air,
we'll throw roses at monsters who couldn't destroy us,
even though they had a chance.

Awesome...gosh, I've been away too long to deny myself such words of poetic beauty.

A very good poem for thought. Last lines is true and is my favorite. I believe we are born with a shadow. Ensure we know life is short and be careful. Thank you for the excellent poem.
