the last thing

the last thing i did
before i gave it all away
was look to the light

and sigh

my hand
didn't feel like
my hand

the sun
didn't feel like
the sun

and my heart beat
through the mud in the middle
slower and slower

i could have said
a million words
to sum up my life

like historic people do

but all i could do
was breathe out
one last breath to the earth

a final contribution
to the maze that was
my life

solving nothing
in it's brevity
but forcing through
the naivety

one last time

before the clouds
rolled the stone
away

(stay)
