Poetry is just the evidence of life. If your life is burning well, poetry is just the ash. Leonard Cohen

All Good Things

source
If all good things must end
then how to explain us?

I used to be afraid
to feel too good
Kept myself tethered
so the inevitable fall 
wouldn't hit too hard

Now 
I let my joy fly 
like a newly fledged bird
and I need not grieve
its ending
for each ending creates 
Space
for the beginning 
of something even
Better.
