Epiphany


The sun rises rises in my soul. The rays dance and  explode
like lyrics hitting the ear.
I am the song. Illusions
shatter like glass. I morph into a dazzling tapestry of
shadow and  light. The
setting sun no longer reminds me of
death. The startling flashes of brilliant color ignites
the sky as the source, wrapped in a ball of light,
slowly falls. It
weeps and does not see its magnificent beauty,
but like all survivors, it will rise. I will rise.
This world will be lit by thousands of balls of light. You and me.
The homeless man scrounging for a morsel of meat. We will all be a flash of beauty.
We are all connected by a cord. This cord will sing our song, our story for eternity.

There shall be darkness and rot. There shall be turmoil and the 
fallen.
But we will rise rise rise.
I do not know what awaits after this life. But, for the first time I am home.
