A short rhyme asking a few insightful questions.

Questions


By Scott S. Batchelor


Will dying be an easy thing,

No suffering or guilt?


Will sweet release make hearts to sing?

Is this the way we're built?


Is hope a thinly veiled lie

We tell ourselves to cope?


Why is empty our goodbye

At end of life's short rope?
