I wrote poems and had them published when I was a teenager. So when my cousin died unexpectedly many years ago, I wrote this poem for him. I thought I would share it.
DEATH
You can’t escape it
It’s everywhere
one minute you are here
The next you are gone
You can’t run away from it
It always catches up
with you, and it doesn’t
care who dies or who
it leaves behind.
