LIFE

Are you afraid of how it will end
Who will it hurt, who's hearts won't mend
How can it stop and leave you nowhere
Where will it happen, will anyone be there
You hope it's not murder, by gun or knife
Just remember death cannot exist, without first having life
Right now you are uncertain or maybe sad
But life is so short, so smile and be glad
Each day is filled with happiness and sorrow
Live for today and strive for tomorrow
There is so much promise, do what you can
And.............. Are you amazed of how it began

June 9, 1999

The two dated June 9, 1999 I was writing at 1 am as my grandmother was dying in a hospital, neither of us know what the other was doing. At the time of her death, neither of us knew the other wrote poetry. The hand written original of LIFE was buried with her.
