Death inside Humans.

Feeling deep down inside souls of the human body.
I sit, thinking, and wondering if Death is living inside us,
or if it outside the souls of the human body?
I sit here in my darkened room, far back in the
corner watching my flesh breathe.

My mind still wonders about Death, and how he works.

Is death human filth? Does it move like us?
Feed like us? Communicate like us?
Will we ever know for sure?
How do we know Death does not live inside
of each and every one of us humans?

I think we will always wonder about it...not any scientific or any other way of discovering will give us an answer about these questinos. Very good poem. Good luck in the contest and keep writing.

this write is insightful..it really makes you wonder if death is real or imaginary...but death is all around us..its part of being human...once your born into the world, you're already starting to die..death isnt just part of everyone's minds...its part of everyone's souls..great write..

WOW!!! You certainly make one stop and think!

I think with some grammer adjustments this would be even more powerful! If you need help, let me know, I would be more than willing to help you on that.

This is really very good!

Best of luck in this contest!

and love
