An unconventional fear takes over my heart As I think about growing old... They say nothing is more powerful than the death All the discomposure drifts away. And it's as calm as a quill felling from above.
But the fact that A day when my voice won't echo in my room A day when my books and diaries would be abandoned A day when me and my family won't be together A day when I won't exist... scares me.
I begin to knit myself in the wool of promises Promises of a life...valuable But then...I see people around me Whether old or young, who met death like lost friends And there again...I am left in a dilemma.
Is there a promise for tomorrow?
I wrote this when me and my sister had a conversation about us getting old...it scared me...So I feel like cherishing every moment with every loved one...I also got inspired by Emily Dickinson's 'Because I could not stop for death....'
