Literature Text

Death lingers at the edge of my mind
My thoughts about it are never kind
It seeps into thoughts so deep
Whatever my thought, death is a part

Life can throw up mountains to overcome
Instead of to climb, I just want to dive
Away from a future I don't know
Into a bliss of not being alive

I want to be live and have fun
To hold the people that I love
Without death looking from the side
To poke and hold my thoughts in embrace

Thoughts so deep and dark slip in
That I wonder what could have been
Without death taking hold of life
By slipping into my mind again

I fear what death may do to my mind
If it no longer lingers at the edge.
Wouldn't it be easier if I just slipped away?
Death hides not at the edge, but is in my core.
I fear the moment I may no longer be able to hold dark thoughts behind.
