to die and leave the confusion of the World
there are those who fear death
both for the guilt of what they perceive
as imminent punishment for a wasted life
and the plain fear of the actual trauma
of actually passing over
the physical body ceasing and withdrawing
back into the elements
from which they were drawn
what to say to these in their mortal pain
that they can take?
compassion makes us wrack our brains
but let what soothing do what it can
we are all in this eternal mystery
and we go as we will
