I don't know much about death
Except that it takes your loved ones
It is a big question mark
Taughting me
Constantly
I think
Our brains
Simply can't
Comprehend
That they one day
We won't be there
I don't know much about death
But I know
For some it might be loud
A gunshot the last sound they here
And for some it might be quiet
Alone in world with their last tear
I don't know much about death
But I know
For some it might be at age 6
A very tragic thing indeed
And for some at age 90
Holding the hands of their children
Maybe just as tragic
I don't know much about death
But with great sadness I know
That while some stay until they can't anymore
Some want to go
Death
Holds suspense, grief, and longing
In the palm of his hand
And he boasts it
