Never To Be Known

Blood is red

Dark is death

What is the pain you feel

What you take your last breath?

Your eye sight goes white

An appearance

Flashes before your eyes

Every answer and question

You wanted to know

You’ll finally get the reason why

If life is a gift

Then what is it to die?

Death is rest

Peaceful

But beware

If there’s nothing better then life

Should you be scared?

Are you afraid of death

When you take your last breath

And see your last sight

What does death hold for you

Is it better then your life
