This poem came to me after learning of the passing of Tom Bradbury. Everyone who had the privilege of interacting with him or reading his work will never forget him. The world has lost a truly beautiful voice.
No longer bound by the laws of man
I take flight on wings I never knew I had
I feel my consciousness expanding up and out
Infinitely
At first it feels forbidden
Like something I should not experience
As my fear falls away I am free
The shackles of my human life no longer restrain me
Suddenly I am everywhere at once
Soaring through the air
Around the room
Around the world
Time itself exists no more
I can go everywhere and be anything
I can see the ones I’ve lost
There is no more pain
Sorrow is vanished
Negativity-
A meaning once attached to experiences
Does not exist
I know those who remain cry for me
I no longer have the same emotions
There exists only love
