Poem -

When death comes knocking.

"When death comes knocking
so often in your life
You grow immunity
against it's anguish
You know it waits for everyone
Lurking behind an accident
Waiting to happen
Some face it front on
Day by day
Just barley living
knowing only of today
For tomorrow
could be the knock they dread
Counting life down
the moments within their head
I met with death within a dream
But never could see his face
I guess you only truly see him
In that moment
you fall from grace".

Great poem! The thought of death used to give me horrible anxiety but as the days go by I try not to think of it and if I do I just think of how peaceful heaven will be and all the people who are there waiting...

Love you!

Val ♥️

Aww beautiful girl, one can only hope for a swift drift away in dreaming, upon old age while sleeping, you will still be an angel either way, i don't know where i changed, i feared death for so long, even built up a hateful wall, somehow i broke it down, i no longer fear it, or get angered by it, it's still sad though, i never want to loose people from my life, but its out of my control,
love you heaps beautiful girl xoxo nardine

Ahhh, one of my favorite topics...never lacks for power, n revelentcy....I was thinkin', you can't really have life without it, it's just one of life's parts, but I always remember I don't think  we should let death 's presence steal away one ounce of the worlds' beauty, n when I'm laughing n joking with fun people, death is reduced to a nothing status, when one is having a happy day, don't even care if ya die that nite... No idea why I told u all that...just feel comfortable around N. From Oz!

You are so right Dear Dan , excepting death as a part of life, knowing you will have your day eventually, helps you live less tied down, the fear of dying holds people back form experiences in life, i too think like you, i think its because I'm finally Content with life, I'd love to stick around a lot longer though my children are young, we have adventures to find , I'm just grateful for each day i wake in the morning:) xoxo
