Between death and life

by Khalid M Darwish   Jun 27, 2012


Death and life are arguing
(with the death tray always predominant)
Life: People love me the most
Death: Most people are always scared of me
Life: I fill peoples' lives with dreams and hopes
Death: I'm the destiny which they should prepare for
Life: Nobody likes death
Death: Most people believe in me
Life: I'm the first hope which a fetus hopes
Death: I'm the truth which all creatures can't deny
Life: You don't give them any chance
Death: That's your responsibility when they were still alive
Life: They will love me at the end
Death: I'm your end, and the more they live the more they get closer to me
Life: Who'll be left since you're also perishable?
Death: Their good work! Whatever good they do in the first live will find in the next life

    ^^This part stood out for me and liked how you have given life and death a voice to debate and talk about each other leaving the reader with a very good advice at the end..excellent :)
