Death

Why do we live like that
Not eating certain foods
Not trying certain things
Only doing what we're supposed to do
We're scared of getting some disease
Or dying
Well, want to hear the truth?
We only die because we live

Emily,

What I feel is so beautiful and touching about all your poetry is that everything you say makes me think. Is this really true? Could this really happen?

And farther than that, everything you say is true. It hits close to home, always making me see how lucky I am to be me.

Thank you so much for sharing you wonderful work with the world; it very well may change my attitude on things.
