Death Where Are You

O, bitter sweet death, why have you been created? I feel as if my emotions have been so complicated- Lately my heart has been broke; I’ve been agitated. Death where are you... Forsaken by hell, I’ve been enraptured by your fire, I try to stay grounded but your heat takes me higher- Breathless, my lungs suffocate knowing you’ll transpire. Death where are you... O, bitter sweet death, when will you come for me? I fear the worst is arriving; I’m drowning in pain’s debris- Please make sure I complete my providential serendipity. Death where are you... Deserted by nature, the weeping willow allures attraction, The leaves dive to the dirt and I’m full of distraction- All the destiny of the earth is divided into one fraction. Death where are you...

Luloo, I certainly agree with John. You always seem to have the right words to say whether writing a poem or sending a congratulatory note to someone whose poem placed in a contest. Great write!
