a book's end

turning the page
landscapes filling my gaze
endless words pass by
intriguing these thoughtsb
i never thought i'd finish
words upon words
of all that i've seen
all that i've felt

now i sit here
turning the page
watching it all change
inflicting this need
scorch these pages
black ink destruction
prophesize the end
with melodic tunes
perhaps build something new
a different look in the stars

i don't want it to end
yet what begins must finish
