The Tower Reversed

It's that feeling —

You've missed the last train

And now you need to find 

Another way home

It'll be ok.

I'm sad about the sadness I won't ever know

Do you think about your funeral?

Wishing you could be there 

I think about mine

What a party, they'll say

(I hope)

It's like that, though

These endings that never began

Do things left unstarted still need closure?

Poems unwritten

Family names unclaimed

Yes, sadness unshared

A tower that never crumbles

The stones erode and erode and remain as ruins.
