Dreams of cold skin and release
Gentle thoughts seem to bring peace
To be free of chains binding to this place
To swim freely through reality, time, and space
Never needing my next breath
Such concepts are not needed in death.
To be free flowing energy on a cosmic scale
Knowing all there is to know and expand with no shell.
But then would I have deprived myself
Lessened my being by casting my emotions to a shelf
Are experiences only worth having when there's emotional ties?
Does life march forwad after the sun dies?
For I am who am but not who I'll always be
Over time these bonds i share are what changes me
So maybe death isnt what frees ones true self
Maybe its being bound to each other and not fame or wealth.
So the pain felt is dire to feeling awake to the world around you
To remind you there's a reason to cherish the love too.
