DEATH IN LIFE - James Berkowitz (U.S.A.)

 


DEATH IN LIFE

-         James Berkowitz (U.S.A.)

Death in life

Life in death

Can you see between the two?

 

The world is in peril

Peril is in the world

What can we do?

 

Appreciate your soul on this earth

On this earth appreciate your soul

For the moments are precious and few

 

A silhouette of birds shadow the sky

With a clarion call into the night

With a clarion call into the night

A silhouette of birds shadow the sky

 

When you’re having one of those days

Days stretched out to thin

Make sure to say I love you

 

For those who survive stick together

On this ephemeral journey we know

We shall meet again and again

As our souls evolvethrough growth
