Virgina Woolf: Her Last Words



I begin to hear the voices again,
and I feel certain
this darkness of times
and minds turns me insane.

I can't fight any longer and
I am doing (what seemsthe best) -
the last Act of this life in vain,
I am falling into a lasting sleep.

I owned all the happiness and joys
and can't go on spoiling yours
anymore. Adieu my love,
you could do better without me.

I really like this idea of making virginia woolf's last words a poem. Being her admirer im certainly impressed by your attempt. These words say a lot to the reader about this world and a writer's continuous struggle for survival. Though she gave up in the end but her last words are immortal. Thanks for writing n sharing.
