The words of Keats stick to my brain “To cease upon midnight with no pain” Though I am scared to I’ll confess my deepest fear Since the beginning of time Humankind has theorized The meaning of the end Is it an eternal sleep, the black that comes Or is it a soul’s journey to another place? I do not know who to believe And that makes me afraid I am terrified of the words “The End” I’ll admit it, oh, yes, I’ll admit it: I am terrified of death.
