Magic Pathway
i think –
that when you die
that is it!
no, magic pathway…
no place,
‘heavenly lit’,
and that is my comfort
that in life,
as humans –
we occupy a specific time –
and a specific space
then, when it is time,
we go!
and someone else –
takes our place
we occupy the moments
no the, ‘forever’,
understanding that –
brings time and feeling together
for me,
there is no life after death
and i find a comfort –
in that idea,
because that finality
does not fill me up with fear
we are just moments in time
barely here,
an immense amount,
to those that are near
