Why do you fear Death,
Or Time or Ageing?
Your soul wants to be free.
Seeks to shatter the fetters
Of this fragile human body.
Before long, soil you shall be
Feeding this famished earth.
Or slumbering in an unlikely creek
Bestowing hope and solace
To parched and weary wanderers.
You were surely intended
To unlearn all of yourself
Become one with the whole.
Hearken! For the day quickly dawns
To return you to the universe.
