Enough

Enough, tortured soul
Enough torment,
Enough striving,
Enough pushing,
Enough crying.

Enough trying to swallow the world,
trying to taste every experience there is,
Enough trying to make us laugh,
to please and delight every soul.

Enough frantic activity
never letting yourself rest,
Enough secret weeping
shredding your soul for love

Enough alcohol
Enough drugs
Enough sex
Enough heart attacks

Take your quiet bed
in the eternal silence
Rest at last,
as you havent for sixty years,
Enjoy finally,
the strange alien balm
of no longer being.

You've done enough. You deserve it

Our tears and regrets are nothing,
clamouring proof,
you've done enough.
