life and death

All that is known
but not believed is this…
we wish for life
but believe in death

Death is a simple dish
of pain tossed with anguish
mixed with chaos
and wrapped in darkness

Life is a casserole of endless labyrinths
of glimpses of light
with promises of rainbow colors
of smells basking in
swirling and tangled textures

To live
is to travel through divergent pathways
mushrooming, multiplying
exponential possibilities
delighting and deflating
pungent and painful

Death
is but one road
comfortable, sure, and predictable
a given destination yielding
only treasures not
pursued

You don’t live unless you’re living
but you die but once
The blue pill offers
unimaginable pain
The red pill renders
you
comfortably numb
Beware the choice to be made

I am confused
for I wish to find truth
but discover only riddles
I fear death
yet
I am terrified of life
Light frightens me
but
darkness haunts me

In the morning…
every morning
after the sun burns off the mist
there is a fork up ahead…
