Feeling of Death
Yesterday while I was walking
Down the dirt road coughing and sneezing
I had a sense of serenity
A feeling of death
How near I am to it
Just by being sick.
Death is punctual
Never too late nor too early
A transition
Of coming and going
Surviving is enduring
Striving for acceptance.
Yet living we must
Laws of nature we can’t run
Looking to the day
When it’s inevitable
When all struggles cease

When it’s the beginning
Of an end.
