How does it make you feel?
To wonder what happens after we die
To think we manifest into something greater
A heaven, a haven, maybe even an angel

So little we know and so much we wish for
What if we’re wrong?
Does the mystery grow?
What if it was a tainted hope all along?

Is there something worth believing
Just because someone’s out of reach
It trivializes the open wounds
Like an excuse for lost hope
There’s no solution, no answer to be sought
The shadows of truth are the hardest to accept

The ending is most surely now
Away to apparent peace and tranquil sleep
From forever to sullen eternal rest
The answer you will hold inside
The mystery will always continue on…

while so serene, this poem was pretty intruiging. you took a difficult theme and really made it work. you must have had some pretty clear thoughts about this because it came through in your poem...good job.

Be it in the truest form, or a desperate lack thereof, fail not to understand that the inspiration is love.
