realization

when all of this is over 

and still the answer lays deep 

a start without a finish

that would not let me sleep 

we didn't get any closer 

we didn't get any closure 

a surface dive for pleasure 

that brought forth hidden treasures 

somewhere in the mountains 

you lay out your golden plan 

while nestled in the valley 

oxidation slowly creeps 

corrosion locks it all in tight 

rust won't let it move 

sadly, as the monsoon pours 

realization stays there too
