Between Life And Afterlife

Floating midair, his soul was torn

Unable to leave the man it inhibited

Unable to go to the angel that beckoned.

Strange it was, that the man was alive

Urging the soul to take leave

And, join the angel in the skies above.

The decision wasn’t that easy to take,

When the soul felt bound to both-

A friend from a previous life, a vessel in this life.

 

Lingering, it noticed

The darkness enveloping from all sides

Swallowing the vessel, forcing it to follow the angel.
