Epiphany
My life passes by in an instant,
A lighting strike,
An immediate presence then gone,
What has brought me to this point,
I will miss you my love,
The wind at my back,
The sun in my face,
It was hot that day.
A bead of a sweat trickles down my cheek,
The silence of dead space follows me,
In my gut I know it wasn't my day.
The buzzards await their meal,
I realize,
Honor is the foundation of my word ,
Action is the beneficiary of my tongue.
My neurons a slave to my ego,
The executor of my thought ,
And as I count my paces,
I realize this is me!
I am greatful to know,
I am truly alive.......
