Fill in the Blank

Fill in the Blank

A Poem by RayLynn

I think the scariest part of life is knowing that one day I’m going to die

Someday the muscle in my chest will stop beating and I’ll breathe my final breath

And it could be 80 years from now or 20 minutes from now, and that’s terrifying

Maybe what’s even more terrifying is that I don’t really know why I was ever here; I don’t know why I was ever created or if there’s even a bigger existence than what I know

Who knows if there’s a God or a Devil, or if there’s some universe out there where everything makes sense and has a reasoning behind it

But I do know that none of those things are on the Earth with us, we’re all just here

And it’s scary to know that I can make any decision of how to live my life and that any of it can be wrong

Life is supposed to be about jumping in and doing what you’re supposed to, it’s about finding your calling

But the only thing I can hear calling is death, because that’s the only I can count on, the only thing I know for sure will happen some day

The rest is all fill in the blank

Such a nice poem about life and death... Concept is new and I like the tag line "fill in the blanks" we all have blanks but sometime we know the answers and sometime not.
Keep writing :)
