Mark On Life To Leave

Circling out and cycling in
again comes death's reprieve
thoughts implore and beckon for
a mark on life to leave
For life in all it's cunning
stunning short and running out
to taste in all it's glory
storied love we've heard about
Time does flutter sharp impart
and cuts as hearts deceive
the soul is storing pages
of the words we'd hoped to leave
Turning through as thoughts review
and sentences concede
cycling in and circling out
again comes death's reprieve
