The futureless future

The futureless future

After years and years

Even with a suture

Realistic fears

After years and years

Don’t know what lies ahead

Hopeless what appears

Don’t tread what we all dread

Even with a suture

Something we can’t mend

Should have done it sooner

And that we can fend

Realistic fears

Of the future no more

Not thinking of heirs

Can’t go back as before*
