I Don't Die

I will walk with you 

In these cosmic places

Come children dance

For the sun is baptising

A life time I found in a second 

Old hands I watch as sand glides threw

Amazed I sit and wonder

Ahh I always knew you would come

And I was never alone 

Since the beginning

For prodical sons must wonder

Its the law in this place

Yes friend I've waited on the train 

I have seen them cone and go 

Now but a begger at ground zero

People rush people run 

With many faces the world expresses her woe

But weep not o mother for I know

They give me money the coins of the times

And I give them pleasant songs to calm they're weary souls

I am everyone and I am yet no one

I become in a certain expression infinite space

Then I unmanifest and am as dust that settles after a soft breeze

The kind gentle kiss on your neck from god on a summers day

I've said it all for I am a song that is lifetimes long

All just a dream a memory of you am I

And with a steady gaze I contemplate her

We walked but we flew threw these oceans 

All these soft loving things that pressed us from out there

And we we and she loved them 

We laughed we cryed we expressed in infinite time

How they made us feel what they made us become

In fear when young we did run

In life's story book we have been many 

And yet somehow behind her and I we are one

Every day the sun calls us and like doves in the sky we fly towards union

And after when night falls I am left grasping jumping around 

Trying to catch shadows 

And then sleep

And then falling threw windows

And I don't know

But I wake and wake and wake and wake

And I remember upon birth all that was  before

And so as I sit there alone in that place

With a thoughtful face

I now know  I don't die
