I Realise Now That...

I realise now that death is not a fear
It’s just a means by which life is the end
For those who came before all disappeared
Returning to a state where mind suspends
So cry not at my grave for I’m not there
I never really was for all you care

Our soul goes on to its reward. Nicely done on a topic which most don't want to think about. Keep writing. Sara
