A Search For Peace
by Being True
An escape is what I need so I'll take this bottle of aspirin
and go to sleep.
Float above the sky and into the unknown. Will I find
the happiness that I could not on Earth.
I see many things as I wander
yet I see nothing at all.
A transparent woman with shoulder length hair
is giving my a loving and knowing smile.
I wish I could touch her. I try and fail
each and every time.
She's getting farther and farther away from me and then
a flash.
Doctors surround me and cold electric medal is on me.
I hear nothing. Feel nothing.
Then freedom comes and I fly.
Looking down at my body on the table.
I have died.
