UNANSWERED QUESTIONS

As the dying pass through time,
Leaving family and friends behind,
Questions of “why” are quietly asked,
By those who work on burial tasks,
As tears and prayers are being said,
A family’s main worry is for their dead,
Are they alone ~ Are they afraid?
Do they know where they are laid?
Are they cold ~ Do they feel trapped?
In their coffin that is cement capped...
Then there are questions that are not spoke,
For just the thought makes loved ones choke,
Death is unknown ~ So there is fear,
What death is like is very unclear,
Is there a Heaven ~ Is there a hell?
Unanswered questions ~ A fearful farewell.

Well written. I -like- to think we stay in character without the body until all those we've known and loved are also dead - and then we move on from that state into something else. But nobody knows. |

I guess death is very scary for the ones who don't know what's there on the other side.
But trust me, all questions have answers.
Each and every one of them.

I relate to this poem very well. Many of those questions have gone through my head quite a few times. Death is one of my biggest fears. Just because I don't know what to expect and when to expect it. Take care.
