Faded peaches and dried grass lay strewn about

On the counter top

Slipping away into the black oblivion

A backdrop of blankness, blackness

Everything comes to a standstill

Frozen in space

In time

Within everyone and anything

Everywhere is quiet whiteness

Silence like a fresh blanket of snow upon the ground

Swallowing up everything

Nothing is left, gone, gone, gone.

Forever,

     Gone,

          Gone,

               Gone.
