Is it really a bad thing?

Everyone is so scared of death,

Is it really a bad thing?

We shouldn't be scared of our last breath,

Why aren’t we scared of this world?



Pain and grief is all around,

Why does everyone have to suffer?

Lies continue to grow in a mound,

Why is the truth so hard to say?



Depression claims so may lives,

Why don’t they ever let us try to help?

Instead they use ropes and knifes,

Why do they get punished for others mistakes?



Natural catastrophes wipe out a bunch,

Why do they not get the chance to live longer?

Some people get a 7-course lunch,

Why must others starve to death?



People are murdered by other sick humans,

Why must a dog die if it bites?

When temperatures are fumin,

Why are we targets?



Maybe too oblivious to see,

Why don’t you open your eyes?

Death isn’t that scary to me,

Is it really a bad thing?

I've been lost lately and can't find my way back sometimes. Dark thoughts seem to cloud everything. I'm trying so hard to see the other side...
