A conscious and organic being lives in an unavoidable conundrum \u2014 imminent death as well as the will to live forever.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Or so it seems.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

But I don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s just that we are oceans apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Death will not keep us away from each other<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but life does, with its comings and goings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I keep seeing your face through the mirror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I keep feeling your hair through my fingers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I keep hearing your voice through happy memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One may live in oblivion<\/p>\n\n\n\n

but even so, at the background remains present what one doesn\u2019t even want to try to forget<\/p>\n\n\n\n

because one cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let us stay, therefore, as with the lingering noise of the so-called beginning of the universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, it has always been there<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and will always be there<\/p>\n\n\n\n

like the pain of being<\/p>\n\n\n\n

till love do us ‘part.’<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are living a fairy tale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are dreaming a life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are listening to the waves that we are<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We know that and we don\u2019t know that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those who survive joyfully<\/p>\n\n\n\n

have learned to pretend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only the dead-while-alive ones<\/p>\n\n\n\n

have forgotten the pain of being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Those who truly live<\/p>\n\n\n\n

suffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With love comes loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With death comes deliverance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that’s OKAY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is sunshine in the night<\/p>\n\n\n\n

for those who see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For others, there is rather darkness in daylight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some who therefore wish to avoid their own shadows<\/p>\n\n\n\n

manage to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or so it seems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Life keeps flowing<\/p>\n\n\n\n

long, long after the final notes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

of the most beautiful song.<\/p>\n
