Something must be said

About the wonderful calm feeling you must have

About the sensation you feel deep within

About the goose bumps that engulf your body’s surface

 

Something must be said

About the comfort you feel

About the off switch finally shut one last time

About the plug being pulled forever

 

Something must be said

About the last poetic moment of life

About the last breath taken

About the last word whispered

 

Something must be said

About the last sight witnessed

About the last salty tear tasted

About the last scent carried through

 

Something must be said

About the last reflection seen

About the last contemplated decision

About the last recalled memory

 

Something must be said

Nothing said; Nothing done

Something done; Nothing said

Something must be said
