There will be a time when your family cry
When your friends feel so lost and denied
But don't look to me to explain when you die
What has happened, since I've never died
I don't know the answer that no body knows;
Where we go, or what might happen next
But I've been here watching the damage expose
How the conecpt leaves this world perplexed
If I could describe death, I don't think I would
Since not knowing gives hope to the blind
Though I, for myself, would find out, if I could
But I daren't leave my loved ones behind
For those who don't know; death is some kind of end
To living on Earth that we can't comprehend

Terrific
A really well writen poem, thoughtful. I have been
with family who have recently died. I held my Father's
hands for an hour just after he died. His hands were
warmer than mine, I have wanted to punch God on the nose for taking a son of mine (I still feel that way)
even though 'it' happened almost nine years ago now

Sounds like the thought doesn't bother your or maybe you have accepted it. It's a good piece and a good explanation, insofar as there is one of course.
