"Sunset Mourns a Mirthful Song"

"Death is not the enemy, it is indifference that should be more feared."

"Sunset Mourns a Mirthful Song"

T'was the saddest time of the year

When one is resting, one oh so dear

Yearning for the presence

that once was there

Reminiscing that white silky hair

But time will pass and time will heal

The heartaches and the pain we feel

Though none ever help but wonder

Where he journeyed in that deep slumber

The thrill, excitement and adventurous ride

In crossing that great divide

Then death would be a blessing 

To whose heart is strong

The day the sunset mourns a mirthful song

You are welcome. I think that writing is such a lovely way to express one's inner ponderings and feelings; thinking about what is important in life and you have surly done that.

This is the way I feel, as an older person living with chronic pain. I've lived a great life, I've climbed plenty of mountains, & I will go peacefully into that deep sleep, whenever it comes. I can feel a relaxed acceptance in your words. Good rhyme & rhythm, too.

Wow, this is deep! You get a tad wordy here and there in the musicality of the poem, but this is fantastic. Well done!

This poem reminds me of my ailing grandma. Although death is feared it is seen as the best solution for the end of agony. I have no advice besides for you to continue to produce amazing writing pieces such as this.
