What's To Come Poem by Derrick Gwynn

Down by the river is where i stand
im feeling left in the night
asking if this life
is what life is supposed to be like
to afraid of death and what comes in the after life
i try to run away from whats beyond
but im always carried home
by the fact that its going to happen
the pain of leaving earth
and not being able to say bye
to those ive loved all my time
and how they will react
in the event of my demise
I am left scared out of my mind
