ah... morbid reality!

Has anyone given any thought to death? That curse which will kill the curse of life. That fanciful idea which will put an end to everything and maybe be a beginning to something inconceivable. Has anyone else been scared to imagine herself/himself cramped in a long hole, dug up somewhere in a miniscule part of earth? That one hole where earth enfolds you in her all-encompassing, cold embrace.

When we do die, will the world grieve? Or lets be particular here, when I die, will the world grieve? When my cup of life spills, would I myself grieve? Would I then implore God to give me one more day to set things right if they are wrong? Would He be cruel then and grant me my wish? Would the people I hold dear be kind then and forgive me of my sins?

When I breathe my last, would I have found love? Or wait, that’s a silly question because I already did find love! The point is, would I have found happiness in love. When I die, will those unspoken words haunt me in my grave? Will my tacit ideas be understood or will they die a silent death as well?

Alas! The ways of the world are harsh and too many ‘woulds’ plague my consciousness… too many! And they will never die….

@josh
so good to see you back on my blog, josh!! its been ages since i last heard from you! i also stopped visiting your blog because everytime i did, it was the same old post and no updates at all!! now, back i go to your blog!!lol
abt why its in bold... hmmm... i don't know... i like the thick brown colour... an earthy, pleasant hue... its bold, its attention grabbing... it screams!
and its very ironical that i finally write abt death (something i keep thinking abt) so close to my birthday! a tad reminiscent of cassius..."life coming a full circle"...
made my mom read it and she was furious!! told me that i should think positive and live life... why think abt death when it is inevitable?
but that's precisely my point. its inevitable. its the truth. its also the ultimate escapade!! its something that i am waiting and not waiting for!! lol...
and abt what people would do after i died... i don't ask... i just think!

Death is the end. Hahahahaha.
There is nothing to life and death. Robert Frost once said that if he was to summarise life in 3 words they would be, "it goes on". Death is another event in life, and in your case, it will the final event. You will die one day. Hahaha. It ends there. There is nothing more to it. Your life will cease to exist, and unlike what we mortals would like to fool ourselves, there is nothing after that. Die.
