Dying

Why are people scared to die

Is it the fact that it is our final good bye,

Once you are in the ground and buried six feet deep

The silence must be unreal to not even hear a peep,

You are dead and can't hear or react to nothing

Because it is due to the sound proof coffin,

You wonder what does happen after a few days

From what we know our bodies start to decay,

I hope I am above and looking down

But, hopefully by then I will be heaven bound,

Dying is easy and living is not

So just enjoy time here on earth because in the end we will have forgot.
