HELLO DEATH

Hello Death, annoying human here, wassup?
For most of life I've waited to meet
And for my every wish, you took another.
I saw you only on the corridor between,
Where you would never speak, except,
To banish me from it.

You knew I was lost in these worlds...
Never pointed me to the light;
Tried to block my access to the dark,
Knowing it's my only ticket through life.
Now as I am doing my time,
Will you still leave signs?

In the dreams of tonight?
In the daydreams of tomorrow?
Why is it that you own the scale of living
While we're forever bound to search for meaning?
They take you into Hell and forget about you in Heaven.
You never bother showing it's not a mad house or a temple.
It's a crack home.

Death, I'm a buzzing mosquito plagued by questions.
Mine might not matter more, it's just that I dare beyond all.
To know why I see not what is just in front of me.
Death, I'm your friend despite your antisocial tendencies,
Because you've been mine; I don't know if you tried,
But I crossed too many lines to be this well today.
It must be you.

You've played in the delays; split-seconds,
Without touching the harmony of chaos.
Death, fuck this shit, can we have a drink and talk about it?
If we were roommates, I'd bring the forbidden snacks.
If your lingering was coincidental, why not leave me ignorant?
Why give an address you won't show to?
To distract or to wait?

Has my curiosity driven insane even nature itself?
Insanity is a human construct.
Death, what would it take for me to break that barrier?
What quest is listed after becoming your own master?
I would never go without a plan,
So is that when we get to drink?

Is it me still too limited to hear?
Is the primordial origin of music a dirge?
I can't hear it because my heart is...
You know most, but Death, do you know everything?
Is it that why you won't speak?
To not find out there's no 'everything'?

What is everything? I'm starting to believe...
Everything is nothing because where there's nothing,
Everything is possible.
But what do I even know, Death? I'm just flesh
Getting cocky because of synchronicities and luck…
I'm just flesh and you could stop me.

Asking an underdeveloped brain to understand
Exploring the unknown, by taking risks and owing the toll.
Nobody's put an end to my journey, I've opened doors.
Death, why are you gentle?
If the healthy knew, they wouldn't even bother...
You try to hide it.

No matter how it hits, your final blow,
After the shockwave there just is;
When you let go, it's only now, never and forever.
Is this part of natural selection?
Working in duality without owning every breath
Into reality?

I'm about to go to sleep, reciting to keep, the coordinates
Of my mental dissolution into whatever is necessary to grow.
Death, I swear to you, when I lucid dream,
I am your shadow, waiting to see
How the Universe experiences itself
Through thee, to find me.
