Life is But a Dream

I have heard it said That lives flash before our eyes Seconds before we're dead And then we're on the other side But there's an interesting phenomenon Where when we die in dreams, we wake We know not how to go on So we cannot dream a fate But what if in our final visions Our mind has nowhere to go So death is just transition From that we do not know What if eternity is seconds long Forever is how we imagine it Lucidity births our gods And only the guilty burn within
