The Veil Between

It’s easy to ignore what lays beyond,

in the veil between the light and the dark.

I am not afraid of what may lurk.

I am afraid of what will be left,

as nothing is as simple as being erased.

There’ll be pieces left to be put together.

A puzzle forever unfinished, never meant-

to be finished, forever a mystery to resent.

Answers will come, but nothing will stay-

in place as the years pass. Like a bay,

what lays beyond will engulf the puzzle,

and all you’re left with is a mystery to nuzzle.
