Ceasing to Exist....

Hmm.........

Ceasing to Exist...

Wandering around in this eternal garden,

Inside an eternal labyrinth,

I am wondering:

How can anything not be eternal?

That wouldn’t make sense, 

Would it?

I can’t get my mind around anything ceasing to exist.

I can’t see the reason for it to be in the first place,

If that is the case.

Sure,

Woods burn down,

Houses crumple to the ground,

Humans die,

But do they cease to exist?

I,

For one,

Believe in the immortality of the soul,

But that is only a theory.

What if it is wrong?

What if this seemingly eternal labyrinth,

In this seemingly eternal garden

At some point

Ceases to exist?

Yet again, the fact that you write these words provides such a wonderful Raison d'être. Do you enjoy double, triple entendre? I hope so, I must think so, since you have provided your readers with such a marvelous example in this piece.

Everything that we perceive to cease leaves something behind to re-grow. We all have pieces of us that once belonged to someone now lost, in this way nothing ceases, nothing dies. Even the gravestones to souls I never knew and died before my father even breathed, they make me wonder of their lives. Plants and generations leave seeds for the next grow. How could nothing cease, if nothing ceased nothing could begin. Existence would just be static, stale water, to flow something must cease. We must let go, we must fall to learn to stand. I loved this piece of yours, well written
