Living Will

what if there were soft stars in the sky?
what if there were words that made him cry?
what if there were water that could kill?
what if there were fear that kept him still?

The sky does hold the softest stars.
There are words that make him cry.
The water from the open sea, can surely make them die.
And if you fear something a lot, it can keep you still.
For we are only human.
And this is a living will.
