Chrysalis

Stepping through that door
Into the cosmos
Feels like you’re falling
Find out you’re flying
Transcending to the ethereal
Life was the cage
Death is release
You’re a butterfly now
You’re in a better place now

Deep musings here, Oku. However, I f we feel incomplete here and now, on what basis should be imagine we’ll get freedom and joy in the afterlife?

Hello, Yes, the poem doesn't answer those questions. It's more of the poet consoling theirself over the loss of a friend.
