Façade
You are not some flower
With a seed that will bloom
As death darkens your door
And takes over your room
Your spirit’s not jettisoned
As corpse hits the floor
Your spirit has always been
And will be, forevermore
For you are eternal
A true being of light
Though this shell you wear
Puts up a convincing fight
Lull senses to sleep
Let only spirit rule
Seek and ye shall find
Remain not the fool
Reach behind the visible
For what you know to be there
Deny your mortality
Deny the world’s cares
Pray to be filled
As a vessel of God
Contain only the Truth
Reject this façade.
