Death

Sadness is a companion we carry
Unable to hold on to dear life we search for meaning,
for purpose, and for hope that there is something better out there.
But when the walls start caving in,
and the thread seems too thin to hold on to,
we let go
and like a swift wind, death sweeps us away
Perhaps it was our fate all along,
but I can\'t help but wonder why?
Indeed death only takes the body,
the soul ventures into the afterlife
and left behind are the memories and the words which you have left behind- yet we are all left with the thought of why you chose to leave so soon.
