Poem -

NIRVANA

he said, quite starkly,
nothing mattered
and not one could get him
to eat that last meal

or rise from his bed or to
shower his head
depression, they said,
but he wasn't at all

he said he had seen it
the ligh that was all
there was nothing else left
to be sought or begott
there was nothing in living or
earth to be had
and he smiled as he told me
he'd be really glad

to be dead.

Hello Marion...

Isn't it sad?

Some people want to die and others that know they have a terminal illness and they know they're going to die and want to live...

Thank you for sharing...
