Art created by Annabelle Popa www.annabellepopa.com WHEN YOU REACH THE END When you reach the end you cannot complain to the manager No returns, no exchanges… life is not refundable Your body is just packaging, sent back for recycling There never was a warranty. Make the best of it until it’s time to go When you reach the end you’ll have to turn in all your memories... All the good ones and the ugly ones will replay through all eternity And we’ll gather ‘round in circles telling stories of who we thought we were Are you proud, or are you embarrassed? Take one last look and then it’s time to go It's time to go When you reach the end you’ll see life is simple carpentry You’re given all the tools you need to build your own reality Did you spend our time making heaven? Or did you make your own hell? Be honest with yourself, because what you build is where you get to go When you reach the end it’s true life goes on without you And the last two thoughts inside of you are: "I'm sorry!" and "I love you!" And as you fade into a memory, they’ll measure up your heart to see how much love you kept buried and how much love you were brave enough to show How much love were you brave enough to show? How much love are you brave enough to show?
