A Cruel, Yet Beautiful State

Alas, it is done for,
For the pitful eyes that hang low,
and excruciating cries that are left hollow,
and mankind done with abhorred said lies;
discover bliss with one final blow.
Seeming silence,
surrenders
Indeed the void is subtle, as they say,
I watched with my one subjective eye,
a cycle that proves no delay.
I too am no different,
I play right in place,
And although none is altered,
A beautiful scene is yet again presented,
A struggle to live not resented
