A death is pain
And yes it hurts
But you can't switch lanes
Cause life is alert
Making you stay
In your own line
Driving on day after day
Like this world says your name
Whispering in the wind
With a voice full of vain
Like this world
Is out to get you
Make your heart cold
Like the man below
But only God
Takes the goods man soul
Like a straight rod
Is what we are
Standing there
In the middle
Of a lightning storm
We're in cold
Nothin keepin us warm
There's more than life
And more than pain
Like a lil kite
the wind keeps you sain
There's emotions
And there's problems
That we can't solve
But that we can help
Yes I've learned
About a good mans death
But I'm still not healed
Cause death can hurt
But not forever
It can make me shiver
But it can make see
How much I know
About this world

PLEASE COMMENT
I wrote this in memory of my grand father who's now passed
His name was Rhodes Slaughter Werth and he passed a few weeks ago so I wanted to write this poem.
