Period. The end.
Nothing more for you to see,
but a small dot of finality.

Life moves further; on and on,
but, for this moment, all is gone;
A brief reprieve; a thought withdrawn.

A space in time, devoid of word;
A simple dot in a curved-letter world:
Straightforward - refusing curl or twirl.

A simple end; there's nothing more...
Life pauses, takes a brief reprieve,
A small dot of breath, then... finality.
