"Death"

by Jeph Johnson

 

Death is a door.
A passage to relief.
For some,
a cancelled destiny;
an end to disbelief.

 

Death is a wall

blocking further gain.
Obstructing
the continual
advancement of pain.

 

Death is a roof
hung over our lives.
Proving life itself
is a ceiling
we've contrived.
