Sempiternity Birth

Sempiternity Birth


At last, when the world is done
In the final end of all your dreams

At last to rest
No more the veils of sorrows bitterness
Slipped from the noose
All the pains of your heart

This life flow ebb relinquishes grasp
To carry no more these burdens

And so all the questions fade
Their shadows irksome litany unanswered
Floats away
To the pointless hills of aspiration

Where all thought matters not
And see such grandeur of tissue castles

Have come to nought 

This final sigh reaches to the unknown
Goes out beyond any description
Of matter intoxicated form
And vanishes before those who carry on

Without you

There before all the stars you are freed
Disentangled from such petty cravings
Loosened at last from all your need
In the borrowed time of eternity

You pass from flesh
To the ever open door of death

Leave the earth in its slow struggling vibration
Eternal now as you pass beyond
With all the collected works of love
And those in perpetuity carry on

With you

The birth upon your final breath
Exhales within infinity
