If I die today,
Will tears come rushing like a rivers stream?
Will eyes overflow with darkness and despair and drip down those flush red cheeks?
Will the Earth quake in anger at its core, that I am no longer here on this realm of greens and blues,
No longer hungry for a tomorrow,
Will the sun retire and go into hiding?
Will the Earth forget about laughter and joy, just for a moment?
And will the thunder call out to the darkness of skies in sorrow cries as clouds swell up and release itself onto the darkest of days?
Will the moons gentle glare be dull and dispirited?
Will the air turn crisp and will your heartbeat go on a limp?
Tell me, will the world bring to a halt, just for a split second?
Will my silence cry too loud, will you bear it?
Who will care when I am no longer here?
Heaven and Hell, where will I pair?
Will I be forgotten or will the spirits of my past me, haunt your memory?
Take my ashes to a faraway land, somewhere with lush green mountains that reek of salty sapphire waters with roaring waves that meet the sand and turn us hand in hand.
Deliver me to my home land.
Forgive me, for I have sinned,
Father, I have tried my best. I just can’t win,
Know that I have lived a life to love and be loved and to seek my truth from within.
