And then I saw it, a beautiful sight.
The world ended and began in it,
and I was at peace.
There was no understanding of why,
or how I had existed.
When the breath stopped and
eyes closed.
When all valor and toil was lost,
this is how it became real.
When all the sadness and shame
left, there was only a soul.
The many times wishing to be
at an end were dreaded now.
The peace flowed in and I
was a creation, in a presence.
The great I am neither spoke nor
motioned.
Yet all was known in every heart.
The true purpose of life, the other
half, was found at last.
The world ended and began in it,
and I was at peace.
There was no understanding of why,
or how I had existed.
When the breath stopped and
eyes closed.
When all valor and toil was lost,

When all the sadness and shame
left, there was only a soul.
