after death, for the living, comes silence.
when one says he or she can no longer be happy after a death, it is from a lack that the emotions take over.
then a room where the living voice no longer reinstates his or her existence. an absence.
but what if the room is taken over? a presence overrides the absence?
it is sad that a memory of a person fades after death and finally ceases for the person who dies next. is there a way to retain this memory?
silence of the dead invites voices. no...not the ghost, but from the living. (whether one chooses to remember or forget)
that much I know.
---
the feelings die. so silence take over. a memory of the feelings. then they fade. and they cease. memory re-engaged. i care but I don't care as i did before. re-imagined presence, in the absence that time witnesses. time is not a conscious being. we are.
so i care for you and I don't care for you.
A death.
that is as fair as I can get.
always already an injustice.

I shall take the leap. and be forgotten!
before I (increasingly) sense my inferiority.
