5 reasons why you...

Please don't bore me,
With your superior content,
Lamenting what is
in the interests of better,
and trite confections
that'll make you wetter,
and stronger and faster,
with a top masterclass,
that simply exposes,
how little you are.
And though you've gone further
and travelled, quite far,
there's a hole in your soul
that won't fill itself,
before the sun dips below
that hill in the distance,
and then you will know,
how dark and alone, and cold,
you've become, and will stay.
As you gather your fortitude
and reflect on life's lessons,
knowing within, that it wasn't a tale,
to be used as an anecdote,
to draw others closer,
it was just a life, that was wasted,
and never replaced,
by the sweet yawn of time,
never erased, by the soul's, souring wine.
It wasn't what you did, nor what you said,
nor how you made,
your great audience feel.
It was, just instead, so enormous, and real,
now inside you, has died, so the rest of us feel
and now lives on in us, until we are gone,
and can't really matter, now it has gone.
