A part of everything and nothing at all
Before the beginning and after the end
I have left everything I have loved
I have left everything I have hated
None can stay with me, no matter how hard I try to keep them
They use me every moment they are alive, but eventually, I cause them all to die
Do they forgive me? For what I have done to them?
I give their lives meaning, but without me, their lives would not have to end
Some complain that I am not enough, others complain that I am too much
Some curse my existence, others say without me their life would have no meaning
I was there at the beginning and I will be there after the end
It is cold, to be so surrounded by everyone and everything but still be alone
What is it like to have an end?
Forever means nothing if you are alone in it
Life has its time, bright and joyful
Death walks behind her, steady and firm
They are curious about each other, but they have never met, and never will
I see them both when it is their turn
They keep me company when they can, but they leave me in their end
I hate that everyone moves on without me
But I love the moments we share
I hate when I get blamed for things I don't mean to do
But I love that I can be a part of everything and be everywhere
I have left everything that I have hated
I have left everything that I have loved
If I could be anything other than what I am
Then maybe I could finally end
But what happens after my end?
what happens after the end of time?
