• I am the look in one’s eyes
    As they reflect consuming flames

    I am the last thoughts
    As the mind runs over life’s names

    I am emotion reflecting off the blade of a knife

    I am death
    But I am also life

    I am in the wind in your mind
    As your body sweeps toward stone
    I am the sound of cracking bone

    I am the bitter taste of liquid
    As it stops the heart
    I am the first and last emotion
    At life’s finish and at life’s start
