![]() Nobody knowsA Poem by Damaris Paz
Life is such a complex and mysterious thing
It can be gone in a matter of seconds In the blink of an eye, a life can be taken away DEATH is part of life All must die But how does it work? Why is it that all the good die first? Why do people die young? Why do the cruel and selfish live like what seems forever? The truth be told, no one deserves to die But we all will one day So how is death decided? How does it work? Chance? Karma? Luck? Or is it God? If it is God, why does he take away the lives of innocent people? Why would he want to cause families and friends such sorrow and pain This no one can answer No one truly knows how death works All we know is people die People cry, people grief Pain and sorrow is what they feel People remember you and some forget you It sounds so simple laid out like that Truthfully, its way beyond all words When someone close to you dies You NEVER forget them You think about them constantly You ask God, why them? You remember all the good and bad times you had You cry and cry It feels as if the pain will never go away You never come to understand why death took them away and not you We all will experience death someday, somewhere Life is a game with set of rules but the outcome is determined by chance It is a mystery Full of clues but no clear answers © 2010 Damaris Paz |
