Destined For Endings Poem by Eila Mahima Jaipaul

how did we get here love,
here at the place
where the sky glances back at the earth
here at the end of our world.
didn't you know
dreams can kill us;
not with their fantasies and wishes,
but by viewing the world, our world
past black and white and
into all the colors of gray.
we were always destined for endings
you and I, left for dead
our souls siphoned out of us
from the jackals feasting on our lives.
