praise the pain that helps us to feel something after the numbness. praise the strains that help us to feel, and not just the hands that caress us. for we are alone in this life, and alive, then alone, and dead, in the death that comes after. i feel the pain, and the fear in the thought, that our time is so short and senseless. i'd help you discover the way to an after life - if my mind wasn't right - but i feel that it is, so all i can say is, don't be afraid of the end.
