Death.

Death

I am no one
Allow me to remain no one
The cuts and concepts I follow are simply to survive
My soul is still no different from yours

For all the beliefs we hold so exceptional
There is but one which distinguishes a person
That is being human, which is really nothing at all
The cords and strings we pull to show the world our fate

Are not but a delay of the inevitable
Death and dying
Do I have the ability to die?
This is what I judge my self by

My heart is one beating part of my body
It lies under my ribs which protect it
Pumping me full of life
Preparing me for death

The fundamental energy of life comes from the Earth
Let’s look around
What do we see
What do we feel

When I examine my soul
I compare it to the animals
The freedom they have!!!
And yet, they are locked in a prison

We are the same, but
A different prison, with different freedoms
Neverchanging
As life goes on the human mind does change

As do our souls
Hearts and feelings
And everything in-between
Still, the door is shut, the line has been drawn

Can I die
Have I really claimed to be more than death
I made something of myself in this life
Therefore, I will not provide you the dignity of death

What a calamity
This is the essential and inalienable dignity of every human
I too shall die
And with it,

My eyes cast skyward
My heart an empty fire hydrant
Fingers like icicles
And nothing more to be said

Nothing more to be done
Nothing more to be felt
Life has passed!
What a time to rejoice

Claim your freedom!
You too can die, it is our one power
That shall never be taken away
I choose dignity

And yet these words,
So high and mighty
Would shatter under the weight of a single day of real suffering
My feelings are insulated in my comfortable home

My comfortable life
Passing me by like a wasp in front of my eyes
Praying not to get stung
It is all our desire

Death approaches young one
Death has made you wait old one
Questions are for the wise
And the weak

Answers are for the strong
And the foolhardy

Death is for all
And life, it seems is but for a few

Someone please show me the difference between life and power
I am on my knees praying to God
Please!
Allow me to live free from this curse

The shackles of death hold nothing back in life
We live until we die
That is our mantra
