Lifted

A Poem by lastsundance
"

Take it however you will.

"
Focus
Let me guide you in
Take my hand child
We must begin
Let me tell you of death
And all that lies within
Take a deep breath
And fret not for sin
Now listen carefully
Do not be frightened
What you once knew 
Will soon be enlightened
Death as you knew it
Down on Earth
Was all mistaken
There is no rebirth
No heaven
No hell
No god
No glory
No fairy tales
No gossip
No fake story
Your existence there
Was nothing more
Than a growing mold
Spreading spores
Your life amounted to death
As soon will follow the rest
Before time was kept
And tales were told
This flawless plan
Was meant to unfold
Beyond your control
And beyond mine
The universe permitted
Your fate to untwine
As you lay
Lifeless and cold
Think far beyond
This story told
The dream is over
No longer concealed
Truly exist
Now that all is revealed

well - I'm trying figure how to phrase this. If you tell people there is no God, or Reincarnation, or Heaven, but that "all is revealed" in the end, that is basically the end of the movie Contact, but that took a whole book to explain and most people were disappointed with that ending. Listen, huge philosophical topics should be addressed lightly or in depth. This seems a little heavy handed, and a little preachy. Well written - don't get me wrong, but maybe try something lighter next time.
