words

What will our last words

to each other be?

And how will they come?

 

Will they come in a scream,

full of poison and vile,

punctuated with a slammed door?

 

Or will they be apologies,

written in a letter:

"So sorry...goodbye."

 

Maybe they'll be sweet

and we two, having lived our lives,

will kiss one last time

and let out last words stay as secrets.

 

Maybe we won't know when they've come,

and we'll just drift apart.

Our last words meaning

nothing, at all.

 

But what fun would it be,

If we knew the ending?
