My strength at last has been put to the test
I hover here between life and death
And I want you all to understand
If it's at all possible I will let you know
The place I am now and where I'll go

Spirals of time spin out patterns of thought
Encased in a web as if they'd been caught
Forever moving upwards a glittering display
So beautiful to see I am quite amazed
Some are shimmering, spinning and others are ablaze

To the visions dancing in my mind
Beckoning smoky wisps reach out and I find
So much love washing over my psyche
Come with us for now you are free
Is the message infused with the inner me

All the while casting a silhouette
Shapes and shadows dance around my feet
Some things of substance but not like me
I hear soothing voices all around
A tantalizing, teasing, melodic sound

I now walk away into the places you didn't know
I feel rather warm and my body's aglow
How excited I feel and soon I'll know all
Something wondrous is happening to me
While I still reside in my earthbound body

Magic seems to now be on my fingertips
An ethereal voice emanates from my lips
My eyes though closed sees into the future far
And now I've found the answer but that I cannot show
Although it is some of which we've always known
