Death Not Just a Word

Taken from us for less then nothing

The way many end the suffering

No way to beat it for we all die

But then why is it so hard for me to say goodbye?

I don't want to believe it

I hate it, each and every bit-

Of the word

Tears hitting the floor can be heard

How can I go on with life at a time like this?

Push it all a side case at dismiss?

Fuck that, it wont do

I'll stick to believing it's not true

But soon enough I'll have to let go

The pain felt no one will know

Death can't be cured

For Death is not just a word








Author's Notes/Comments: 

People these days piss the living shit out of me!!! How the hell can people just push "Death" away like nothing even happened? You are sick if you think like this! And by no means will you EVER get any respect from me. Death isn't just a word that can be erased from the reality that we live in. It makes me so mad. Death is not just a word! So don't act as if it is!!!

No word could ever capture the true pain and sadness that death brings. for any one to think that it's just seems to be little life and a persons whole existence. great poem loved every word.

we cant pass death up, it is a scary thought sometimes. but we must live and write our poetry :-) and our ghost will live on paper.
