EXIT SIGN

Too aware of what is failing
Too aware what dies inside
Just a truth known for a long time
And a truth that’s still defied

All of us must make the journey
Till we reach that corridor
Where the hallway ends with just
An exit sign above the door

What’s beyond is not the issue
That’s a thing no one can know
All that’s really known for certain
Is through that door we all must go
