What is death?

It is what can be cheated

but cannot be escaped

It is what takes ages to visit the wise

but it takes moments to visit the ignorant

What is death?

It is what we fear of seeing

but makes us appreciate the days we have

It is what we call life’s lover,

always compelled to take her for himself

What is death?

It is the end of our journeys

that let’s us reflect on them

It is the end of many journeys,

but also the beginning of new ones
