Deathly Shadows


Fear of death
taints life.


With family
thoughts of departure 
sorting out belongings 
when they're gone.
As if packing for
a train journey
they're on
and you're not.


With friends
memories of laughs 
will fade in to 
the distance shadows
of the corners of the mind
images of face
will blur.


Fear of death
taints life.


But,
in moments of joy
love of life
out shines death.
