Longing Day

I never saw this coming,
the beginning of the end,
the twilight of the day.

My heart stutters once more
in hesitation at the window,
to look out once again
at the ever fading world
with the same old view,
watching with a new type of smile.

If today went on forever
I would never look back
at the hold of time,
that moves on with a question
of why I stay behind.

I walk away from destiny,
from the deserting light,
that bleakly shines
on the flower of my life,
to live on through the night.

The message on the walls
goes on for a very long time,
making its mark as a scar
in the beginning of the end.
