deWhat if?

It's time

For Death

To have a name change?

For us to

Acknowledge

To accept

What it really is?

Versus continueing

to feed the stories

the nightmares

Of how the end of the body

Is the end of it all.

What if we

Altered our perception

Instead trying to control it all

Because we are so afraid of losing

What we love.by

What if

Istead we acknowledge

Everything returns

To where it came from

The water to the ocean

No matter where it falls

Carbon returns to the earth

To create something new

And molecules freed

From once rigid forms

Set free to travel

And the outworn space suit

Now ugraded

To an invisible cloak

That allows

The once confined traveller

To now go anywhere

Beyond this world

Of form

Of senses

Of emotions

Of gravity

To be anywhere

Everywhere

Playing

Dancing

Free

Isn't a graduation

From earth

Something to celebrate?

Instead of mourning

Something to appreciate

Instead of grieving?

What if we stopped

Holding so tightly

To the old story

Of death

And instead said

Thank you

D(ear) EA(r)TH

For the gift of this life

In me

In front of me

And truely

Truely lived in gratitude

Even when it moves on

Travelling elsewhere

Love lives on

No matter the form.
