The Land After

by The Winter Cynic

The land of the dead isn't the nightmarish inferno we all imagined as children. But then we all have so many opinions and images of our own Hell.

Born with a cry

An act we do through most of life

Stumble and search

For things that take time to find

Discover the suffer loss

And with a sigh depart from here

Ripple

On steady water

Caused by a weeping sakura tree

Same other place existing within out time

A world we go to when we fade

Tranquil, no true assurance though of peace

We live again

Bodiless, still living the life we had

And some, a selfish few,

Continue to repeat the same damned cycle

Working though for a being higher

And deal with death, a familiar friend

As others die and join the dead

--Requiem Duindain
