There is no such as a happy ending The reason Shakespear failed in writing us our perfect love story is that The mere notion that things would stop if they were happy doesn’t make any sense The highway of happiness Allows the car or motorbike or van that is ourselves With a full tank of petrol Take the eager passengers of emotion Depending on the space within Carry us on a cruise or a splutter until the end of the asphalt The end of the road of life, is the end of life Anyone who says there’s dignity in death Obviously hasn’t held the hand of a loved one As they splutter for breath Rasping and shallow Asleep but begging for something you can’t give them Someone Death isn’t dignified It’s a rusty engine collapsing The car that has driven you for your whole life You have oiled, serviced, mot-ed, loved, Neglected, Repaired failing for one last time No matter how many *** holes you have hit Flat tyres, blowing and wiping out days, weeks months of exploring We still travelled forward Experiencing every view and every bump along the way There’s no happiness in the end of the road It’s only there in how you look back upon the journey
