Come Tomorrow

In shattered glass, remains
yesterdays splintering
of all tomorrows.

Words have begun to fail.
Promises have bankrupt my resources,
depleted emotions.
Even the pen weakens, the ink blurs.
Perception smudged,
life becomes tarnished, fouled.

The end nears,
final words to be left behind,
forever a silent gift,
in absentia...
come tomorrow.
