POP BOOM POETRY

What is death?

What does he see while looking at me?

What colour am I in his eyes?

What aura surrounds me?

Is he willing to take me?

Does he even want me?

I can see him hovering over me with tears

He doesn't want to take a soul so bright

Filled to the brim with shinning light

Does death feel pain when he takes a life away?

Does he try hard to keep his presence at bay?

Death isn't bad because he is a part of life

They coincide

But yet they conflict

Death is seen as a bottomless pit

While life is seen as a luminous spirit

But they co exist all the same.

There is no light without darkness and no darkness without light

And sometimes we get angry at him

While he is just carrying out a task given to him

We bring up satan

And GOD

And blame them and curse them both for allowing death to take our loved ones away

We lay at night and pray and cry tears of sorrow

While in the light of the day a baby is born tomorrow

So isn't it the same?

Death is a sad man

I feel empathy for him

He takes on the sins

How would I feel to be death?

Taking the souls of those who are young,the old and the strong

The meek and the weak

But yet some people long for death to come to the point where they take their own lives with knives and guns

Ropes and dope

Let me tell you now, Depression is worse than death

There are things in this world that are far worst than death

Some hate him but I pity him

I am not scared of him

I think he is more scared of me and my serenity

Because I eternally love;

And regardless to if i go to a heaven above or a hell below

I never can tell where I would go

Because with death comes no memory

No hurt

He just comes and takes us with him, Where ever that may be

But it is a peaceful place because we dont feel anything

nothing;

No pain of suffering

We disappear of the face of this earth

From the dirt we came

And we go back into it again.

Looking at death from another perspective.
