begin with the end
Yasmine Diaz
It all begins with the end
Count the highlights with your friends
The world could end in a blink
From one sleep to the next
A sudden breath,
A blink and a cough
You cross your fingers from behind
Sometimes you can’t help to lie
What’s the truth if not a worry
But don’t be sorry, be ready
A smile
We’re just stardust
Beating hearts wrapped around the planet
Whatever we are we just grow here
We’re already leaving so soon
A breath
It’s not over
What was and what will be is still starting
And every story has its ending
We’re just all beginning.
