What It Is To Die

What it is to Die
Wake up talking,
No one hears me.
It's like a plane crashing,
Not Evident until it's over.
But who has seen
Such a fabulous catastrophe?
My life is one big oxymoron,
Redundant in its ways.
Living without is like dying
But I would never do it
Then someone would feel
The same as I do-
The burning, stinging sensation
That is my heart and soul.
Dying with is living without.
The circle continues-
What it is to live.

Very good poem.
Living is what we do everyday, sometimes lost, sometimes found, sometimes misplaced. Dying is slipping away sometimes fast, sometimes slow, but a passing, death comes never, we merely walk to different paths.
Thanks for sharing. |

yeah i figured most people would be confused especially in the last two stanzas- "Living without" refers to a friend who commited suicide and I feel horrible, basically i would feel better dead, "But I would never do it Then someone would feel the same..." I would never commit suicide because then someone would have the same feeling I have now and I wouldn't wish that upon anyone. "Dying with is living without.." Is saying that if I died with a loved one still here, they would live without me and know "What it is to Die" so therefore "the circle continues.
