"You shall not
Be afraid of death,"
They say. God is with you.
God. How is he going to make death better?
Your death won't be good,
I can promise you that.
Why do priests preach
Of a great heaven,
When true enough they are afraid?
They are afraid of death
Like the rest of us.
Do not be ashamed.
Everyone fears death whether they admit it or not.
I want people to remember me as me
After my death.
To remember I wasn't fake
And that life is worth living.
No matter how bad your own life may be,
Do not be ashamed
Of your own fear.
For your death will come
Like mine will for me.
