Really like what you did here. You've put together a short and sweet reminder that we can't spend our lives afraid to live. Great piece, thank you for posting this =)

I really like this one!! It captures the idea that so many people don't take chances, or even really live until it's too late. It reminds me of a song we're singing in choir, The Rose. Specifically a line "It's the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live." Very deep piece! :]

Yeah, its really strange how anything can kill us, anything, yet we continue to live everday. Nice poem, very modern.
