We sat around waiting for the end
To come,
Watching the edges of clouds and ridges
Of the mountains burn like paper
Glowing and retreating into themselves,
And behind them the sky glowed with
Fire undiscernable from the sunset.
As it came, I sat by you, my last person and
I closed my eyes;
I was glad to end it
With you.
