Poem: Death Isn’t Abstract


Death Isn’t Abstract - By Thai Sheridan


Death isn’t

an abstract event


Making it abstract intellectual

a belief or other worldly

protects you from deep grief


To make peace with death

you need to make

peace with grief


It requires tremendous

inner strength to dwell deeply

inside the loss of those

you dearly love


It requires

the same strength

to dwell deeply

inside the knowledge

that you will lose

your precious life


You may tend to avoid

accepting the biggest truth

about living which is

that everything dies


Deep acceptance will

change you forever


From the ever soothing collections of poems by Thai Sheridan “Relax you’re going to die”. See more books and poetry in the deyja library
