What is life?

What is death?

What is it to breathe

your last breath?

No one knows

but those who go

and experience first hand

what lies beyond the land.

So while we’re here

on our plane,

take the time to find

what you hold most dear.

Whether it’s love or hate,

passion or fear,

find it, hold it,

and don’t let go.

It’s easy enough

to say this now,

with everything burning.

But the flame will eventually

cease to exist, and burn no longer.

So take what you get,

love what you have,

and accept that one day

it will be no more.
