Nature's indifference demands acceptance from conscious minds. Have you ever seen a snake eat a mouse in a cage? Somebody has to die for something else to live. Somebody has to take in order for somebody to give. Emotions contradict this. We could deny it all and hide in our remote corners of the world. Until death knocks on our door as we take our time to open it. one step closer... I should have held my lover closer 2 steps away... What didn't I say? 3 steps near... and we search last minute for something that will soothe our ears. "Believe in God so that you may go to heaven and have eternal life." 4 steps go by and we close our eyes. Our hearts and minds shut off and we die. Nature takes our bodies and replenishes them into the Earth. Our opinions long since evaporated from the final tone of Nature's moan. This is what we dread, but this what we know.
