reality of death
death.
romanticized
properly
or in
futile hopes of
a beautiful afterparty?
the reality of death
is that it is not real
at all.
our soul,
the most important part of us,
does not
die.
it does not
whither away
under the dry ground.
it simply
moves along.
to a new body.
so really,
death is
simply fabrictated
to make ourselves
smile.
to make ourselves
feel like
we matter,
that our soul's depth is ours,
that our heart's integrity is pure.
but our soul has built upon
generations.
our heart has strengthened over
years.
after we die,
we are nothing.
but
we are everything.
