Death

Death

A Poem by Joey Nizz

The end of life, Death
Is the thing that takes away someone's or anything's life
How can it be so cruel? so unkind?
Its the thing that kills the things we love or the ones we love
death is very old, ancient if you must say

But
It can bring peace to those who are exhausted, drained, sick and old
It helps the world to learn and grow
It helps realize why time is precious and should be appreciated
It helps us see and acknowledge why our loved ones should be cherished and adored

It can make room for a new life, another new birth
and a new birth makes room for new ideas and a new purpose
as they say, old is gold but so is the new

The new helps us see things in a different view, a different perspective
old only reminds us of our falls, defeats, rises and victories
its all just a routine, a cycle that must be balanced out, and there should always be balance
old helps care for and teach the new
new will help keep the old loved and strong
and the new will become the old that's just how life and the world goes..

Death is not the opposie of life, but apart of it.

You are very much welcome, Im glad to know of your thoughts about this, thank you for your time ^^
Death is inevitable and it takes all living things. We mostly look on it as being a thief, destructive and cruel, and yet of course there is the other side of the coin to consider. I was pleased to find that your poem covered all angles. Death can indeed be a friend to some, who are suffering and lonely. You are quite right, it is about balance. We live and we die, that is the way of the world. Nicely penned poem and you got my imagination wandering.
