I am a dead soul


But from my death have been born masterpieces


For the death of a writer only brings tales to flourish


The more I whither, the better I can describe what death really feels like


Of two eyes wide open, with a glimpse of light on them yet empty


Of a body that exists and breaths still, yet it ended up being only a cage to the soul.


For it keeps me in this world, it chains me away from peace.


It lulls me with hopes.

 Like a writer that uses a pen to create, my body uses my dying soul.


And that's how masterpieces are made.

 That's how a single book ends up having so much value.


Because it literally has pieces of the aches of my soul all over its pages.


It has me. And words and feelings I never had the chance to utter in this world.

 For none used to listen, until I was dead.
