early exit
eventually the day comes when everything you've ever done has been admired and praised and leaves you staring at a blank wall wondering now what?
what have all those words brought you but the need to outdo yourself? where do you go when you stand at the top of the ladder and realize there is no roof waiting to receive you?
a chill wind steals through your marrow all your hot red blood congealing as the cold of alone is pumped on its appointed round by the stubborn beating of your empty heart
you stand before the mirror in the autumn of your life and watch as leaves detach themselves gently at first then in a furious blizzard until the only thing staring back is the ivory skull of death in life
winter is coming after an autumn more bitter than sweet no sun of indian summer has warmed you and you lie listless unable to find the will to build a fire
all the treasure in your counting house cannot buy you what you need you have the love of strangers but you and your shadow stand alone
the world falls at your feet you climb over mute recumbent bodies as you make your way to the door ~ copyright 2014 RC deWinter
