nothing really dies
nothing’s ever lost forever
nothing really dies
it’s a beautiful life
a child swaddled in questions
drifting through the universe
with no compass to guide
but a tiny ember burns
like a star inside
it’s a beautiful life
caught in this gravity of being
this soul’s fire
makes diamonds of the darkness in me
one blackbird chases after another
blindly to secure
a little big of real estate
a corner of the sky to conquer
it’s a beautiful life
caught in this gravity of being
this soul’s fire
makes diamonds of the darkness in me
cast in a silent spell
immobility
frozen under ice and stone
mountain wraps its arms round me
pressing diamonds of this heart of coal
it’s a beautiful life
beautiful
nothing really dies
nothing’s ever lost forever
