I accept you somehow
Though I don't know when
Shall I exist
to see my end?
You enter my mind
And tear it apart
I live through my world
With you in my heart
I await you willingly
Fore you can't be escaped
And when you want me
There's no hiding place
No second chances
Just one last breath
No one to stop you
You're nothing to test
Death, you don't fear me
Nor do I you
I'm yours for the taking
No matter what I do

And that I don't like
You seem much more appealing
Than darkness or light
I live in the shadows
Alone like you
Awaiting my time
To see what I can undo

my first breath was liquid,
a gasping, choking thing, and then I cried,
loud
SUSTENANCE
Pearl Levine 1916-1987
Every winter morning you stepped out on the lawn
and spread seeds and crumbs for mourning
Don't believe the things you hear about that final breath.
As sure as you are reading this, there IS life after death!
