After Death

My conscience lives in oblivion.

That cold body eroded to ash.

I'm void of any meaning.

And no one will ever know.

.

I thought I was the hero.

Man...I guess I was the villain.

Nothing ever made sense anyway.

I guess that's what too much time does.

.

Now I just sit here watching...waiting.

Your time flies as mine stands still.

I'm lifeless, devoid of any form.

You're full of life but shamefully unaware.

.

We all want to be remembered.

But guess what? No one really is.

I've seen the books all fade to black.

And humanity is gone far before that.

.

There's nothing out here...nothing.

Savor it while you still can.

For the end is near, my friend.

And that horrible life of yours?

.

Well...it's the only easy part.
