Nice, Liz. Death is such a hard topic to nail, but nail it you did. I loved the ending, and you should definitely be proud of this. Amazing poem!
I guess you can't view death it's one of those things, no-one knows where they are going intil they actually get there! ! ! Heavern of Hell (well that's my opinion because I'm a Catholic) ! ! Thank you 4 that xx
Many view death as an unpleasant afair that will happen no matter what. I see it like you do. As a new step in life. A new chapter in our book. An opening door to what awaits in the next life if that is so. Lovely poem. Britney

How can we view death. Death is something we cant really expirience due to dieing you cant run back to your friends and say 'Hey I know what death is! ' It doesnt work like that....Maybe we are all, all ready dead in a sense? Death is hard to nail but i like the way you used it in this poem.
