Death- a peaceful slumber

I open my eyes to a dark place…
I'm chained…
I can’t choose to live life the way I want…
I’m being held captive against my own will…
The darkness is closing in on me…
I’m suffocated…
I want to taste freedom again
To hold on to it and never let go…

As I sit in my cell…I ponder… is this the life I’m destined to live?
Should I fight back or accept it as it is?

Today I wake up to see a light in my dark home…
An angel smiling reaching out…
I hold her hand and I’m free…
There is no darkness in this strange new place only light.
I can run and feel the wind on my cheeks… I can see the sky stretching out….
Mirroring the deep blue seas…

I look down and see my little home…
My body lifeless… but a smile across the face… deep in peaceful slumber...
