Sink

Post by TheMillionHope » Sat Dec 09, 2006 11:50 pm

If there were these so called dark clouds
I would be the one to blow them all away
Mind if I lead the battle between life and death?
I don’t need any swords, shields, or armor
All I need is my soul

As I jump off the sky and sink towards the ocean of darkness
Further and further and further and further and further
Without a single breath--I die

Only to find my soul pass me by
Sinking further and further and further

I'm going to have to read this one over a few more times. The part where your soul passes by your mortal corpse and beyond, really grabbed my attention.

I'm a real lover of short pieces that manage to pack in plenty for me to think about. Even if it's just one image, if I want to ponder on that image after I've gone away from reading it ...

... thanks for the image.
