Death Mention - Blog Posts

not every dead man was noble and neither are the dying

has every fall from grace been exonerated

now that your date of demise has been established

long have we honored the fallen as kings

with little regard for their true archetype

have the moribund beings been pardoned of their wrongdoings

now that they face deaths eternal grasp

new character idea! This is Evy the ghost! She died suddenly, and now she’s on a mission to let her friend know she’s ok. Like Harry Houdini and his wife Bess, Evy and her friend devised a secret code so that they’ll know for sure if they’re speaking to their friend on the other side. Now all Evy has to do is learn how to contact the living...

When I hide don't look for me in sunsets and summer breezes,

Look for me in lightning storms and stars,

For even when I'm gone I will not lie in peace,

I will be power without form in the way I wish I could be in life.

When I quiet don't listen for me in bird songs and breaths,

Listen for me in crashing waves and laughter,

For even when I am gone I will not quiet my voice,

I will be the battle cry that bubbled from my lungs but never passed my lips.

When I go don't feel for me in blanket burrows and sand,

Feel for me in the sunlight and the snow,

For even when I am gone I will not let go of you,

I will be the elements that cut through each of your defences to hold you.

When I die do not try to follow,

Know that I love you and I am with you,

And I'd never leave you alone.
