IT'S NOT IN THE DYING

IT’S NOT IN THE DYING It’s not in the dying You understandThat haunts  me.It is the question of my immortality.My flesh is too human to comprehendThe Spirit, the Soul, Eternity.I am pleasure. I am pain.I have a beginning. I have an end.I only know what I see and what I feel.My mind reels on the edges of  Infinity.No sense of a special energy within.No knowing  of redemption and sin.No faith in rejoicing in eternal blissSeeing those that I miss.Whirling in a world of barren realityTossed in the storms of Life’s absurdityI seize the moment as if the lastMy present keeps moving  on as part of my past.Lost in the seconds of each breathI fear no Heaven No HellNor Death.
