In the memory of my beloved friend, Helena, and others that died young and in any kind of injustice I'm asking myself what it’s like to be dead. When I think about it I become still, I can't even move my head. Bodies are lying everywhere, I'm searching for yours too; there are so many that I don't know where to look! I become so confused I don't know what to think. Are you here or not? I'm walking through all the spilled blood; the mood is getting more somber, the shadow is getting darker- I see the shining blade of death Death is coming, The clouds are nearly gone. She won't leave us until she’s killed us all. She reaches for me slowly, I shiver in pain, I cannot forget it, I scream out your name. She stops right beside me, I can now feel... Then I remember... Your image, your being, your thoughts and your smile- I thought that you’d left, but now I see that you have not! Smiling at me, you open my eyes, you'll always be living, the illusion is gone! I don't see dead bodies, I don't see spilled blood, my vision is cleared and my head is relaxed. I can see peace and a land far beyond, I can only see what man would want. Though death may find us all- that's all meant to be, what's most important today is: to be! Your memory lives and so do you, I'll never forget you and neither will you! « return. |
