At what point can we say it’s over?
When the last conversation is said?
The last tear shed?
Maybe when you’ve lost hope in?

Or when time ends
The dial tone hits
The light clicks
And the casket is open?

Perhaps when the mountains level
The seas dry
And the eyes are leaden

What words could be said?
What paragraphs spoken?
When the door is closed
To the bed you lie dead in
