It has always saddened me that so many people die brutal deaths.
I’ve seen it on crime shows.
I’ve seen it nearly daily in the news.
Horrible deaths. Children murdered. Women raped and murdered.
Men and women murdered randomly, wrong place, wrong time.
People tortured and murdered by serial killers.
I’ve often thought about how unimaginably horrible it must be to go out of the world so brutally.
My hope is that when these people die no matter how terrifying their deaths were
they will be in a place so blissful, so serendipitous, that the way they left this world won’t even be a memory.
And I tend to believe that might be a glorious reality for them in the afterlife.

Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
