In Eclipse Challenge; inspirational acrostic

Everything fades, one way or another,

Culminating in a grand finale, a final smothering dark.

Light, love, laughter, all drown in its embrace,

In this last end, a lulling sleep to define your anguish.

Perhaps endings themselves do have an end,

Serene new dawns from which the darkness is dispelled?

Endings -it seems- often die with a beginning.
