These pages have come to a close

Like all things meant for goodness

These lines no more infinite

A definite tale once told

No longer a word I say

Uncanny

How much I’ve already said

In such a short amount

Of time

No more finite

Like this piece

Of mine

I wish you were here

For you were very dear

To me

A mind brought to rest

A hand brought to strife

Found meaning in the empty

Through filling up the blank spaces

You always gave me

But now

Time is a finished

Yet still

Your production is a given

Like how every hello

Comes with a bye

The good is found

In the memories we once shared

And the fact that finity

Means that you can always

Be replaced

By another

Once more

Description:

This piece touches on the effective process of journaling, specifically how one can become immersed when it is used as a means for self-expression and self-reflection. Until one reaches the end of their time with the pages, which can be devastating, one realizes eventually that the endless production of journals and other means of self-art can replace it.
