And life, 

This undulating mess of

Victories and sob stories

Is made perfect 

In death. 

Is death not

The reason we want to live? 

Is death not 

The reason we want more out of life? 

The real reason we demand more? 

Death is not your enemy. 

If there were no Death

In what would life 

Find its meaning?

Is the darkness of death

Not the light that 

Illumes the path to a victory

That ripples into eternity? 

Death is not your enemy. 

The last enemy is Death.
