I’m dying.
But I feel alive.
Shrinking into her surface
She weeps.
Time is off duty.
My senses retired.
I’m dying.
But I feel alive.
My cathartic instrument.
You beckoned near
Proclaiming,
“It’s the small things in life.”
I’m dying.
But I feel alive.
Our hidden worlds
Exposed raw.
Life’s mute cycles
Given a voice.
I’m dying.
But I feel alive.
My purpose
Fulfilled
Every doubt
Degenerating.
I’m dying.
But I feel alive.
Alone
But loved.
Forgotten
But not unknown.
You stepped on me.
But I feel alive.

I've known people facing the inevitable to have both peace and stamina.
