Fear Not Death
I welcome death and fear it not,
when it comes I will take it by the hand.
Call me crazy, but I am not,
life is good and I will live it to the end.
But i will not worry when the time is near,
I will look death in the eye and call it's bluff.
With eyes that pierce the darknest night,
it will bleed light brighter than the sun.
Death is not the end of life however,
it's the beginning of a journey untold.
Life is but a walk in the park,
to travel through it is only a short road.
For the soul there is no dead end,
when the body dies the soul lives forever.
The body is but a shell,
a cocoon for something more.
When we are in womb we are caterpillars,
when born we enter the cocoon stage.
As we grow older the cocoon begins to break,
when we die the butterfly then takes flight.
We are like butterflies ready to come out,
once broken free we are welcome where we want to roam.
Therefore the greatest journey in life is death,
I will welcome it with open arms.
Do not fear something that need not be feared,
we are only in wait for something greater.
Don't go early for that is wrong, wait it out,
great things are worth waiting for.
Life is full of happiness,
but it's just not whole til death do we part.
