Beyond the Grave

Ever Wonder why
they say goodbye
turn out the lights
end their life

the veil tightens
the dark, lonely nights
the crying and waiting
for something good to happen
and there's nothing tragic
about pain alleviated

Such a burden to always pretend
yet remembering and knowing
we can jump in the deep end

Such is the Taking
No waiting No hurting No explaining
You don't remember and remember
that you have no value no meaning
Really why wake up here in this dimension
As for me I think of it as a leap of faith
who know whats behind the curtain
it could be  Paradise
who really knows
whats on the other side
Its like taking a rain check
parting the deck
maybe just maybe
they are not to feel sorry for
the passive the weak
they take control,
let the dice roll
they say when its the end of the game

Can they be the brave?
Those  not afraid
Its just a free fall
Near the edge of the cliff
Afraid to fly , no not I
I think Heaven shall catch me
And finally
most defiantly
I can be an  Angel, free

This is a beautiful and intriguing look at what most people have no idea about. I love that you give voice and identity to those who take their own lives, and even give them power, such as saying that they are choosing to end this game we call life when they've had enough, and perhaps should be respected for this. Well done, brave of you to tackle such a topic, and in such a beautiful way.
