It Is Only The Fear Poem by Francis Duggan

With each passing day my life's journey's end near
But like most it is only the fear of dying that i do fear
But fear does not keep the life's Reaper away
And the young and the old are dying every day
And the Reaper who will claim the life from me will claim the life from you
And about it there is nothing that we can do
And the old saying the longer you live the sooner you will die
Is simply a fact and fact never lie
Most people like me do live in fear of death
And will fight for life until their last breath
But death on life always has the final say
And for all of us there is a last night and day
Like all other life forms the great to the small
Death for us humans is for us all.
