Life is selfish...Love is confused...No guarantees...Just the truth.


Poem Artwork


 

No one can be born for you
No one can die for you
Life is selfish
Love is confused
No guarantees
Just the truth...


Sign a contract happily say " I do"
Now sickness casts it's eye on you.
No longer do you sit on the throne
Of Matrimonial bliss, your use is gone.


Before the contract is null and void
Another takes your place enjoying
Your love, your life every tender touch
Bearing the fruit that once was yours.


In silence words caress your mind
Searing pain cuts you like a knife
THEY don't care that you understand
Every deed intended to shorten your life.


When did cruel despicable acts
Sanctioned by judicial fact
Turn hearts into glacial stone
Judging the life of a human soul.


What constitutes humane murder
Starvation, an acceptable alternative
Who has the right to decide
When it's time for you to die?


No one can be born for you
No one can die for you
Life is selfish
Love is confused
No guarantees
Just the truth.

When a society forgets God it forgets everything else too.
There are too many today trying to rid the world of its Creator, and those who believe have to suffer along with those who don't. That's always been the way, sad to say! Excellent thought provoking poem Z~!
All the best to you!

An excellent write on a touchy subject.
Through its seems to me there are just a
bunch of people on both sides, proclaiming they know
what's best, for someone else's life. I can only speak for myself; I would consider it cruel and inhumane for me to be hooked up to a machine for 15 years. If my time on this earth has expired. Then leave me alone and let me die naturally like the orignal man did and go be with the Lord. Surely this is better than lying motionless in a bed.

Take care

doctors can do a lot to prolong life but maybe sometimes it's more humane to let the terminally ill move on. I don't know, every case is different. Some have such a strong belief in an afterlife that they can't wait to shove off this mortal coil. But there's a terrible sadness in the seeming finality of death. Thanks for this wake up call! k

Murder most foul.
What's next, shooting the elderly, homeless. Sick, so we don't need hospitals?
Scarey times ahead.
Gods given us the intelligence to help save people, people, like this.
It should be used. The argument not to be helped is false. For Did not Jesus heal the sick, raise the dead.
The argument that when your numbers up. Just let them die.
Does that mean, leave people to die in car crashes, heart attacks cancer?

Well said...
