death's cowl shadows the soul's release
rising up to meet its maker
as all mortal ties to life cease
birth is counterbalanced by death
for we must experience both
life's first breath and death's final breath
grief wears a veil of mournful tears
worn to soften reality,
woven out of sadness and fears
death cannot exist without birth
life cannot evolve without death
both fuel diversity on Earth
death's a natural progression
life can never be forever
and souls accept this concession
distilled from belief, tears of faith
shed in memory of the dead,
acknowledge the soul's salvation
