fragile body
limp as adam
before a breath
of God
immersed in
a bath of that
which once
gave him life as well
tears of his brother
swirl into the
morality of his heart
everlasting
like a first love
or a dream come true
she told him,
it was inevitable
only death is promised
and 10% of your wealth
but if all you own is
enlightenment
will the other 90% suffice?
you cannot understand
these words if you have
not
experienced.
and if you have experienced
enough you will know
that these words
can mean many things
but his soul continues
to elevate into the heavens
as his body drowns itself
closer to the earth
the neverending story
of life and man is
questionable yet
never answered
though equations
literature song and force
have tried they will never
conquer
