Life

A momentary projection

By P.A. WilkinsonPublished 2 years ago Updated 2 years ago 1 min read

Death is drastic

Dramatic

It is somehow everything,

And nothing, at the same time

Where do these thoughts,

Our projections, come from?

Why this?

What is this?

Mysterious life

Self aware capsules…

Filled with what?

Souls?

-

All I can figure out

For sure

About life

And about love

Is that it's all worth it

Living for

-

To lose everything

Together

Makes it all worth it

To grow old

And become fragile, once again

Is less daunting

With you by my side

-

Until the reaper

Claims me for another realm

I will seek shelter from death

In your arms

In your love
