Everything ends, despite our wishes
despite our hopes
despite our dreams
despite how hard we wish it wouldn’t.
Everything finishes, despite our inability
to see an alternative reality
to perceive ourselves advancing
to relive the past.
Everything builds upon us, even though
it feels trivial
it seems larger than it is
it ends.
A Short Story a Day is a daily feature and creative writing project.
