Death
May 15, 2009
To ashes you came
and to ashes you shall return
The words God uttered to Adam
and Eve
Once you actually see a
loved one dead
so many emotions
run through
your mind
You laugh at the simplest
things just to
avoid crying
You get angered
over small irritations
only to unleash your
loathing of this unjust world
eventually you do
end up crying
and feel
somewhat...
relieved

Great poem, very conflicting yet relevent emotions about what death is like for a person still here. And it makes Sense!!!! Thats good!!!! I like how you said that you feel sad that hes gone but happy that hes put out of his misery.
I gave you five stars! =]
Sorry about your uncle though =[
