Hello, My New Friend

Aware and unafraid of what my future has in store,

when the clock stops ticking my life will no longer be a chore.

Functioning every day like a robot continuously reset,

I will no longer have a burning desire to fret.

Will I be engulfed in darkness or lost in blank space?

Will I look at peace with a rested face?

Hello, my new friend

I welcome you with open arms.

I will be ready,

I will not be alarmed.
