The Colors of Life

We live
We die
That's the rhythm of time

Light goes on
Light goes off
A binary cycle

Inhalation
Exhalation
The only true dichotomy

But there is more that makes us live
Makes us shine
Makes us breathe

The moment of beginning
The second that ignition happens
The first rush of air

The fading twilight before death
A softly glowing ember disappearing
The pause of emptiness

There is more to life light and air
There is more to death darkness and emptiness
The rhythm of time follows no beat
