This Moment of Paradise and Hell

In this moment,
Is unbridled joy,
Unlike any seen,
Is unfathomable despair,
Unlike ever expected.

In this moment,
Something begins,
Making the heart beat faster,
Something ends,
Making everything go blank.

In this moment,
Someone has an orgasm,
Sees paradise,
Someone loses an organ,
Sees hell.

In this moment,
Someone comes back home,
Meets familiar comfort,
Someone touches foreign land,
Meets indifferent strangers.

In this moment,
Someone takes their first breath,
Quite magically,
Someone breathes their last,
Quite effortlessly.

In this moment,
Is everything
We could ever imagine,
Is all
We know as paradise and hell.
