Death- An Amusement

Close your eyes, close your eyes

As you see the nightfall upon you

Breathe, just breathe

For that is what will set you free.

 

Aware I am, but mostly not

The moment of my departure I see is approaching

Hard to find the light that is not before me

To be doomed or delighted is a question that arises.

 

For what I am about to see, cannot be shown

To be nothing and everything all at once

In this nothingness, I hear the voice of silence

And this silence is loud and talking to me.

 

To be one with it in a fraction of time is all I want

The last gasp, the last blink, the last breath in this realm

I want to be dissolved,

Dissolved into the emptiness that is so heavy and full.
