Last Journey

Last journey

 

It is burning before me

Where I have stayed and played

It's burning before me with wood as wood.

Flames are high and low

From my burning body

Watching this and thinking back to my past

some thing funny they are

What a small amount of air

that dominated the days of mine

How many trifles and quarrels

in the days of it’s life

How many relatives and foes

In it’s régime in this world

Tears affection and lust on sex

Where they are? And

What they are?

In this session of my inquiry

A light of mercy nears to me and

Hold me with it to it’s world of glee

My travel continues there and

crossing many universes on our way

last journey

that's the first time that i have seen a single word of happiness in your work. glee! mercy is one of the best things that can happen to one. you have such depth of feeling that i know you must have had good times in your life. you don't have to forget the pain of life, but sweeping it to the back of ones' mind is not against the laws of man. everyone, especially those who have suffered, need glee and joy in their lives. you especially, who seem so torured steven. [may i call you steven?][ my true name is 'guy'.]please join in and make the world a better place for all, with a little happiness. please write something about a thing that brings joy to your life! i have no doubt that you, with your depth of feeling can do this thing. keep on keeping on. gee.
