Dying Is Not A Happy Thing

DYING IS NOT A HAPPY THING

Dying is not a happy thing-
We see it again and again-
The Pain, the Sadness, the Futility-

We all have to die,
But this is not really a consolation
For anyone-

Dying is not a happy thing
I saw it again today-
And I have already seen it many many times-

One day others
Will see this
From and for me.
