Whoooosssshhh. That's what it feels like when I've taken a deep breath because my emotions have reached the limit and finally exhale. After I've been thinking about those who have just left us. Empathy may be our greatest achievement, or handicap, with regard to all the other life we share the Earth with. A few words:
Responsibilities, dreams and regrets
Life was full of these and more
The better place to which I go
To find release for evermore
If freedom is truly around the corner
I shall not know all I've left
For behind there would be a blank
A nothingness, perhaps evidence of theft
For what would be my new being
If I was aware of all the suffrance
That past love and affection still had relevance
What would one call such an existence?
If I am still near and fully aware
Then my sadness has no boundaries
For at least in life, I was there
And could help in life's quandaries
But if perchance I am reborn
A butterfly just out of my cocoon
And you stumble across my labours
Linger and witness something marvellous...don't leave too soon!
