Look at life
You suddenly realize.
You are alive.
There is nothing you can do about the fact that you are alive.
You choose death but death will always be there for you in the end.
The pain of knowing that you live to die makes sense yet it doesn’t?
What is the point of it all if you live to die?
Does life start over?
If it does then what is the point of living?
Why stay in this life if there is a chance for another?
About this poem
You can’t do anything about the fact that you live to only die one day. Suicide, natural causes, accidents all end in death. Once you know it and come to terms do you still value life?
