a life

A Life unfolds

Within the spaces of time.

Continues as the years go by,

Is molded by experiences,

Is speared, healed, and moves on

To continue its time on this earth.

As the years go by,

its appearance withers

With age.

Its interior landscape continues to be

Drawn by the days long since past,

 by the moment at hand.

When the time comes

To say good bye to this life

All the burdens of the past

Drift away,

 lighter and brighter than before,

a life is transformed.

 I am transformed

as well with the joy

Of knowing you,

With the memory of you

Ever present in my being.
