Life after death.

It's a chilled and dim night, as the stars glimmer with their incandescence.
The dark hollow that is the night sky, the void between heaven and hell.
I stare, as I am enveloped in it's beauty.

Each star, a burning mass of gases that eventually collapses on itself.
All beauty, must end is what I think a star represents.
Happiness will burn bright, for what seems like eternity.
But in the end it goes out in a flicker, in a blink of a eye, & it goes out in a boom.

Nobody notices when a star disappears for there is another one to replace it, almost instantly.

As it begins to drizzle, and the water hits my skin, I realize what rain represents.
When the storm passes, everything is washed anew.
But sometimes there is a hurricane that destroys everything.
Rain, represents a simple thing we have all experienced, that we all understand.
Tears.

I feel the earth rumble beneath my feet, and I see the cracks form in the ground.
Everything falls into a void, tree branches snap, buildings fall, life itself in all forms is destroyed.
The sound of screams fill the air, alarms sound, & tears are shed as people realize that everything is falling apart, and they can't help.
I now know what a earthquake represents.
Something we all hope to never experience.
Heartbreak.

As I lay in the grass, and feel the touch of the soft carpet that blankets the earth, I feel so secure.
Almost like the feel of a lovers touch.

Lightening strikes fear into most of us.
Leaving us whimpering, and begging for the loud sound to stop.
Each strike lasts no more than a instant, but still has such a effect on all of us whether it be positive or negative.
For lightening represents, the one thing we must all face.
Called, death.

And, as the sun rises and brings light to a new horizon.
When the night ends, and brightness is brought onto the world.
The moment where time seems to stand still.
I think to myself what the sunrise means.
Within moments, I know the answer.
The sunrise represents new beginnings, as each drab and dreary night comes to a end, there is always something bright over the horizon.

The sunrise, means, life after death.
