My Friend Death (Poem)

I wonder why I’m here?

And it scares me.

Everything.

Having to find a purpose.

Having to overcome obstacles.

Having to grow up.

Having to discover my identity.

Having to experience misfortunes of the unpredictable future.

Having to die.

Unexpectedly.

Irreversibly.

End.

Death is the threat which holds me more accountable for my life.

And I thank Death.

Death is a friend to everyone because He will accompany all of us at one moment of our lives, or more so our deaths.

Life if all perceptual, but death is all unknown.

A mystery never to be to known to the human’s cognitive awareness unless they have pierced the sting of Death.

I await Death to encounter me in my future friendship, but yet I’m so afraid…

but I don’t know what I’m afraid of more living or dying...
