Afterlife

As she watches the clouds fly by

She feels the push of the wind along her back.

With one shiver, she falls.

Falls to the ground.

The paralyzing silence that has now surrounded itself around her

Whispers its piercing cries.

With each stab, she feels

The missing pieces of her soul

Come alive with a single heartbeat.

As the pain shall soon be revealed

The feelings inside her are so real.

As she looks up to the sky once more,

She feels the lies,

Oh so sore.

But now as the whispers say,

"One last beat that sounds so sweet.

Come alive and feel yourself arise."

As she finds the clouds have gone

She awakes to an early dawn.

She pulls her strength together

And no longer falls to her knees.

As the paralyzing silence leaves,

She can now see

Herself and who she wants to be.
