'It Is No Good Anymore'

"IT IS NO GOOD ANYMORE"

I remember my Uncle Jack in his last days saying
"It is no good any more"
I did not understand then what exactly he was saying
I now in daily pain begin to understand-

A time comes when the pains multiply
When one cannot get out of them
No matter what one does-

A time comes when Life is mostly hurting
And little or nothing can be really enjoyed-

The end is Hell for most-

I am not there yet
But I know it is coming
And I am quite afraid.
