Where Our Sidewalk Ends

by Sean Allen   Nov 22, 2004


There is no pot of gold,
no hidden mysteries;
no stories are left untold
where the sidewalk ends.

No confetti will fly,
no taste of victory.
The final place where we all lie
is where the sidewalk ends.

No judgment on who was right,
no useless parting plea;
nothing but eternal night
lies where the sidewalk ends.

No bitter cries last for long,
no tears will be shed for me.
No haunting funeral song
lives where the sidewalk ends.

Let us turn that final bend
into whatever God may send,
into what we can't comprehend,
the land that lies beyond us;
beyond where the sidewalk ends.
