When Life and Death Kisses

When life and death 

                                  Kisses    

          The limits of time, dare to live.

          In the moment, and not get trapped;

          Into an abyss loop, where routine

          becomes repetitive motion in a 

          delusional dream, where weightiness

          Needs release from a thousand memories.

          Your book of life opens without permission.

          Then collapse into transition, given a sigh;

           Is it a relief? Or disbelief. This life’s lived 

           In each breath, so breathe deeply where

           Everything fades through blurred tears.

           No matter how many years! Shadow fears.

           Of those ephemeral years, entwine vapor.

           That every heart beats: Sojourn, sojourn!

           This kiss unites wholeness and clarity.

           Now clothed in divine brilliance.

           Where light rests: in humility.
