New Beginnings


Is death so tragic, that most fear it?

To not feel, or see, or smell

Is a fate we all must deal with.

Some may consider it a hell.

Is it the fear of the unknown

That makes us shudder at the thought of dying?

If that is the case, why does every bone

In our body push us to go sky diving

Bungee-jumping, or do things we

Normally wouldn’t do? Death is

An alarm clock that awakes us from our dream.

Before we wake up, this

Continues to remind us tat when it rings

We will all start new beginnings.
