What is death?
A great unknown
We fear the most.
But -
Think of a journey
To a land
Yet undiscovered
Ready to welcome
You, a lone wanderer
Looking for a respite
From everything.
You are old,
Your future is bleak;
There is nothing
To hope for
Except being free
From all the aches
Killing your body.
Pack your stuff,
But be light
On your journey.
In truth
You'll just need
Your name
And a word, or two,
To put on your grave.
