The Finer Things In Life

We wake up every day with the realization that we're waiting to die

Life is short, depression is long

I guess that's what makes us writers and poets, to escape the fear others have of the our time we have 

We as writers and poets and people of prose see the beauty in tragedy, we have seen love with our own eyes

We have felt it

there is love after death

That's what keeps us going

Because when we die, our writing will live on forever

Our writing can be a whole different world for someone else

It can inspire, and change lives

Writers, poets, people of prose, We will live on forever in the finer things club.

Wonderful thought, Feo. Who doesn't want to leave something of worth behind, to live on in perpetuity.
