Endings

Like a sunset
an ending
is full of a promise
of a new start
and a letting go.
Of all you knew
a tiny shift
that opens a void.
An empty space to fill
with new life
new love
new people
new beginnings

If you can leap into the void
you would not fall
everywhere, there are nets
the nets catch anyone who jumps
and they help you
forgive and forget.
And though, in time
you may grow to love the void,
you will never forget completely
the nets that helped you
on land before the void
and when you realize that,
their memories will be cast in iron
for time.
