I Cannot Say What Death Is

I CANNOT SAY WHAT DEATH IS

I cannot say what Death is
Or what it means
Or whether it means anything
I cannot say what Death is.

One day a person you care about is here
And then they are not.
One day I will not be here too
And others will mourn for me.

Death is Cruel
And Death is Evil
And Death is the End of Each of us
God curse Death
And let us never say goodbye to those we love.
