Sunset of Reality

What is the feeling of being alone?
Alongside with guilt
Without anyone but a stone
With your name engraved on it

Death is like a torture 
With no hesitation
There is uncertainty
If it's all just cessation

It's hard to return
Especially in this current view
If I can turn back the time
Just to be with you

Think of a good memory
Like the first time, I said Hi
But now it's a sad reality
In a form of goodbye

I wish I could see you
Even if I die
If you miss me
Just look up in the sky

When you’re dead
You'll feel a total strife
With a combination of curiosity
Of what it’s like in the afterlife

When my life starts to vanish slowly
Like a falling sunset
Take care of yourself, be strong
And avoid death

Listen to everybody when they say
Continue with your life and don't hide
Just like a line in a famous movie
I'll see you on the other side

Now my journey ends
I can now live in a peaceful phase
Without any painful thought
In this cruel place
