After All
"All is well" he said
eyes burnt with a different truth
wishing himself dead
//
evidence of storms
trail through his sad, soaked story
rain can't hide real tears
//
she struggles for words
the magic ones don't exist
it breaks her own peace
//
both sat in silence
buried pages six feet down
flowers bloom from shit

The abrupt ending packs a terrific wallop. Perfect ending and a very sad one also. Love it!
