It’s a warm and beautiful day, though how can one take the time to notice
\nI’ve been rendered numbed, unable to go out and face it
\nIt’s a future that I’ve always feared, that was always possible;
\nI’ve resolved myself to accepting it is forever incomprehensible.<\/p>\n
I’m less afraid of dying than I am of not living
\nOf foregoing this freedom, whose fragility I can see now,
\nBut I’m more afraid of losing what I know and love
\nThan I am of cashing out now, and going to heaven above<\/p>\n
I witness the pain of the thousands standing there
\npanicked by the pathos of a misguided millionaire,
\nIt is the sight played over and over in our minds
\nOf five thousand unprepared souls, freed before their time.<\/p>\n
I’m less afraid of dying than I am of not living
\nIt never was very easy to start the process of forgiving
\nI’m less afraid of dying than I am of not believing
\nReality struck hard today, I’ll go on about my grieving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
