womb to tomb

then a morn came
another zygote became….
a partner to produce many more

life so continued
as we basked in
sunrises and sunsets…
at a memorable distance

the birds did flee
there became a larger gap
between you and me
till one day,
neither you nor I could see
we were both at sea…

a distant horizon now beckoned me
come dear one now be one with glee,
I sailed along with the surf
there was no way to brave the turf

silently we merged with eternity
sand filled bags of memories

time did continue to fly
along with me
none could now see
twas the birth of spirituality
a long distanced desire,
when I was young
now in the heavens alone
like a balloon,
Lifelessly lone-somely strung
