Fade to Black

Moratorium, a contract deferred.

Crematorium, bonds embedded with love undeterred.

But this reprieve is only temporary,

The true cost will become clear in time.

No more happiness, no more merry, 

a single thread remains, the thread of future sublime.

The last proof of a friend's  love withers and fades.

A final wish for redemption, the one at the other side persuades

but his black heart is old, his eyes has engulfed the dark

He hums a  melancholy note, ignites a spark

The spark ignites a flame, a flame that death yearns 

And in the end, the question still remains whether he will blow out the flame

 Or let  the thread burn.
