:: Co-existence ::
The Absence of Which

It creeps within you yet you know not
Engulfs you slowly with every knot
Thou shall never perceive
Of that with open arms you never receive
Taboo it seems with passing thought
The mind abruptly shut with iron wrought
Denial oh yes the name of the game
Yet only after the unnamed is due fame
The heart quavers with ticking seconds
A venture into the unknown soon it reckons
The imminent rattle chokes the throat
You struggle in a stormy sea like ye a boat
The beauty of death is life therein
The absence of which reveals the truth within
Death and life both in us
Choose to believe and rejoice ‘alas
