How does it all end?

Whimper and bang, aside

How does it all end?

Has there been a being

who has delved that far?

Who has seen the close,

with the only open eyes?

Who has survived an alchemy,

concocted and left behind?

Who has travelled farther,

than the last one alive?

Tell me,how does it all end?

With all the lights out?

Or, just, here-

Within me.
