Death Passed Me By, Again

I felt death
last night
it passed me by
I don't know why
I felt sure the
overgrown path of
weeds and stubble
that I was forced to
walk on  barefoot as
my heart did an
eratic death dance
while hot pain shot
up through every
fibre of my entire
being as I caught a
glance at the grim
dark cave with its
gaping maw seeming
to beckon me for the
 kill, and I'm here still
laid out in my bed
with pain unending
wound unmending
but still here, am I
supposed to care
that death passed
me by, I can only
ask why.

now i know

 There's been a death in the family,will be back soon

Powerful writing...sorry for your loss, I lost my 16 year old son last year and I know that I will never be the same...hopefully a better person because of his memory and all the good he did in his few short years. God Bless you!

I have just read this poem, my God, what the heck is going on? You must hang in there. I am telling you, it is not your time. Do you hear me? It is not your time.
Pain, I feel it , you must get some medical attention immediately, call someone please, I am going to do a healing meditation in about 30 minutes, that is 1 am eastern standard time, (I am in Connecticut)..You must relax and accept this energy, breathe and imagine white light coming into your body, filling it with healing energy and breathe in deep breaths, and blow out the negative energy as you release your breath, imagine the negative energy leaving your body as well as your pain...
Hang in there my dear friend, I am here for you....
send me a message, and I will respond..
Love you, peace and lightness to you dear heart,
Amber "V"

I do hope this poem fiction, if not my condolences... I love this write however, reminded me of a trait of the old Alfred Hitchcock. Then I adore you poetry.
