Final Curtain

In the end

we die alone

In the end

no blade to hone

In the end

do Angel’s call

In the end

when rhythm stalls

In the end

which deck unstacks

In the end

our health attacked

In the end

we pray for more

In the end

but fate endures

In the end

one final change

In the end

whose face remains

In the end

the bonds break free

In the end

— one last decree
