Death?
What are you?
Are you what gives life meaning?
Or is it...
Life that gives you meaning?
Are you actually wonderful,
compared to life?
Or
is it because life is so wonderful,
that we are afraid to die?
It is only life that is within our perception,
for we do not perceive you,
death.
We know that life is full of trials,
but
we don't recognize that you could be too.
For we cannot comprehend you.

Do we fade?
Completely out of existence?
Never to return?
Or, do we meet a
Creator?
Does our being wander,
through a limitless void?
Or, is it possible,
we are given another life?
And death does not really exist?
What if everyone is waiting?
Our loved ones, our friends,
all on the other side.
We can only guess.
But, why guess at all?
Why not just live
Life.
