Afterlife

Hover, above me
I see myself below, still
Arms reached out, floating
Dark hooded sentries, shuffle
Entering, safe, distant light

Afterlife

Afterlife

They came
Men with sharp axes
chopped down
the old oak.
It`s shadow
stood there
out of habit.
At Sundown
it disappeared.

Quote of Death and Life

Born into this life,
          It's a painful shock...
          Die to the afterlife
       , it's almost a
          relief, a gift...!

I see the gates in front of me,
The flowered fields that sway
My eyes have started searching for,
The pieces of my heart that were taken away.

Ha! the naivety of man, 
In death seeks afterlife 
In life avoids death at all cost!

Afterlife

Gentle wind
Blowing
Ashes
             Me

Dust
Carbon
Atoms
             Be

Of earth
Sun
Moon
             Sea

Proton
Neutron
Quark
             Free

A Spirit's Lullaby

Moonlight beckons the stray souls
   conjured from pain and lost in time
Guided by memories and kins' yowls
   they meld in styx with a blissful chime.

Let Us Be Clear

There is no god 
No afterlife
No Allah 
No Jehovah
No reincarnation
Just death and rest
Why do you make it hard 
Enjoy life an easy passage 
There is no god
Lets go !

Hey when its over its over
Squad Sergeant combing his grove
Takes out the vice shredders

I'm not gonna leave in a scuffle
I'll shake your hand and grin
Wish you a nice afterlife
