I Strike A Match and Light My Soul

What is it about death
Makes a person come alive
One candle flickers another soars
One soul extinguished, another ignites
Just like that its gone
But suddenly its just begun
One second bears no future
One lifetime bears no past
No end beginning or a middle
Just endless floating timeless motions
Circling above horizons
Landing thuds crashing ground
Death leaves life to rot
And life begins to fight against it
One candle explodes in war
As dying flames smoke up to Heaven
I strike a match and light my soul
