The First Law Of Thermodynamics
Every time I awake from rest and draw a breath,
being refreshed, I feel blessed.
More aware that this vessel of flesh
that I inhabit and discard at death
is just baggage.
I wanna leave it behind, and I will someday.
It won’t contain this mind of mine indefinitely.
So I’m searching for the key to the door of this reality
‘cause I don’t wanna be here anymore.
Yes, I yearn to return to the stuff that I came from –
corporeal existence sucks.
I got chains on my legs and can’t break the bonds just yet,
but endurance for this journey I’m on
is my assurance of inevitable strolls on distant worlds.
So I live this life with persistence,
not inhibited by b!tches with pups.
I just ignore their social constructs.
Worse than iron chains are bonds on your brain
having you in fear of things
that the ancients mind’s couldn’t easily define,
so they handicapped all mankind with mythologies.
But some have made technology the god they worship today.
It’s hard to say who’s right when their both extreme.
I think reality is somewhere in between.
My intellect drives me to make dots connect correctly
from the evidence that I collect.
So I stop, reflect, adopt and reject old theories
and new concepts, then select what’s best for me.
I respectfully deny any faith is a necessity for my soul survival
when mine is granted by the first law of thermodynamics.
I am energy......I animate flesh,
and my departure initiates death.
And no science or religion or other school of thought
has been able to prove why yet.
Even the best of explanations are speculations
still awaiting verification after all this time.
Still clinging to a faith that’s blind,
but still doubting in the back of your mind looking for signs.
Isn’t time to free your mind to free your mind
to explore the universe and find who you just might be
outside of the flesh and bone
that’s been your temporary home?
Me? I wanna roam on the solar wind
and sail it back to where time and space begin:
Before Satan fell, before people could conceive of hell,
before there was righteousness or sin.

I really like this ! we struggle in this life , science has proven that we are made of energy and therefore proven there is an after life, we continue but religion is just a guess, or a promise, maybe even a hope! Don't give up because there is more than this, our existence here is only fleeting.spooky Ghost do exist! pondering ,what happens after death or rather after this existence.

Believe me my longing to leave comes not from despair but from curiosity about what else is out there in this vast universe. I believe I am my life energy whether you chose to call it holy spirit, nephesh, chi, prana or something other. Nevertheless, I thank you for your encouraging comments.
