Death Is The End For Us All Poem by James McLain

Death is everything to all
It is always near, never that far out of reach.
Some see death as their friend,
Never your friend, never to kind, hands held out
To the weak.

Indifferent to all death is,
Never a frown, never a smile, seeking
A way to get in.
Neither female nor male, gay or straight
Black or white.

Some will take great risks with their lives
And think they have cheated death.
Some have taken no risks and die at school,
Hit by a drunk,
Shot by a cop and by thier own hand will die
Death's never sad.

Death is life,
Living life death is the shadow all fear.
And those who make claim,
To be unafraid, are the people that death seeks out.

Death never gets sick, death has no sick twists,
Pray all you want, call on God if you must.
An extension from death with this knowledge you trust,
Death is the end for us all.
