When I Die

By frileyma

I will move through
Water
I will move through
Sky
I will move
Into
Over
and
Around

I will move on
and
On

I will be ashes flying
Forward
Forever
I will swirl and surrender
To wind and her whim
I will be what was
What is

I will be singing
Aching
Breathing
Smiling
Broken me
Being

Softly
I still am
Now
and
Then

    Such a peaceful aspect to Death, love. It is one I wish others would take on my death, though I doubt that will happen. Anyways... Nice write and very well constructed. ~Melodies
