Death, unveil yourself
don’t hide behind
A need to scare
living lights
out of weak minds….
Death, reveal yourself
in the glory of renewal
as the opportunity
one always wished for
but never had…
Death, heal yourself
You are painted black
only by those
who refuse
to see beyond
Death, peel yourself
to display layers
levels of existence
fantasies indulged in
but not said….
Death, feel yourself
Opacity is created
by those who wish to
hold the world hostage
And keep them blind
Death, steel yourself
You are stronger
than vested interests
with your infallibility
Transparency dared…
Death can sometimes be a welcome friend. We need to see death also as bright.

Is there anything stronger than death? It is more necessary to life than sunlight water and oxygen

The strongest inevitability carries a question mark – is it a comma or full stop?

What an interesting way of looking at death. I know it’s all part of a cycle, but I’m not sure if I want death revealed. 😀
