What Happens When We Die?
What happens when we die?
Is there a general pulling apart,
breaking down, disintegration
of body and soul and mind.
If your heart stops beating,
do you stop loving?
When your brain stops working,
do you stop understanding?
Is there some brilliant light,
a gradual comprehension,
“Oh this is it”?
Or is it sudden, startling,
a crash of knowledge,
“It’s all over!”
The darkness is overwhelming
my eyelids are too heavy,
I cannot stay awake any longer.
