When I reach the end
would I grasp the meaning
of that it was that I lived for?When I reached the end
would I understand the truth
to which I am born?When I reach the end
would I discern the definition
of what it means to be alone?When I reach the end
would I know the fact
to which bone I came from?When I reach the end
Perhaps I will have spoken
for ages and ages hence
—my tongue running dry
and my heart all spentWhen I reach the end
Parhaps I will have ran
the course of life
for years and years ahead
—my feet worn out
and my sweat all bledWhen I reach the end
Perhaps I will have won
the battle to find my soul
for endless eras that has gone
—my heart has been broken
and remade again and again
my soul has touched lives
out in the openWhen I reach the end
—I would not know
how will I have been thenUncertain is the future
just as how the past
has been forgottenBut when I do reach the end
I will tell you a thousand stories
—where it went right and wrongWhen I reach the end
I promise—I will have
written my all
after so long
