SUCH AS DEATH...

Tweet

You come…

Interrupting

Life that is pleasant n’ peaceful

Reminding us that the transition of you is troublesome!

Suppose that is why we live as if you do NOT exist

You engulf our entire being,

And take control…

…We are such small creatures

That are @ your mercy as we try live.

Yet I stand here seeking answers,

Standing in the gaps of you that life suffers.

I am the reminder,

The remainder

Of what you have made us.

I will linger…

Longer than me;

And much like the dust splitting the wind,

I, one day will rise against you…

Cradle you in my arms,

And keep your secrets

For I will never return.

And I will be all knowing;

Living more powerful in my death…

Beget by the life I remember.

Living without what I want most,

As you sing your songs out loud

That the words are left engraved on my tomb.

So make me feel your voice rush through me

Sing it in front of the audience

With hidden messages just for me

Use that harsh and course voice with brutal honesty

Let me die with the last note,

With painful memories

Buried beneath my thick skin

As I come face to face with you,

Leaving the world in such a heart breaking way…

Such as DEATH!
