In Old Age/I Think Too Much/ About Death Poem by Shalom Freedman

In Old Age/I Think Too Much/ About Death



In old age
I think too much
Of death

When young
It was a vague idea
In the mind of someone else

Now I think of it too much
I fear it
I fear more
The road to it

I despise myself
For thinking too much of it

And I long for those
Already gone
Who I cannot really believe
I will join.
