Cradle me with your hand
sweet touch of darkness
Entomb me with your grip
Take me into eternal abyss
I fear not, the unknown
for I have you, to guide
me and nestle my soul, as
I leave my decrepit body
I have this complete sense
of freedom, as I feel so
enlightened by the absence
of my former human captivity
Cemetery gates can not hold
me, as I am free to roam,
wherever I choose, as I am
the breeze in the daytime,
and the silhouette that looms
in the glowing moonlight...

WOWOW....this is some pretty heavy stuff..what's with all the death today? Everywhere I turn, I'm looking it straight in the face..
Life is for the living. We have plenty of time to contemplate our existentialism when we're dead..
I get it though, and the ending stanza saved it for me.
Wonderful projection,
Best of luck,
Jin
