Title: To Die
Author: Tracy Hodson

Poem: What would it be like to die?
How can you say it’s the easy way out?
To make such a decision is far from that
It’s the hardest of my life
How do I choose to leave all I have?
The love of those I love
The allies I’ve made
I’ve still had an impact on their lives…

We all want happiness but what? how? where?
Am I meant to make myself happy?
What am I to do?
And what extremes do I go to?
I search for all the answers
But where will I find them? where?
Are they written in books
In the voices of friends
Or is it all coming from Somewhere Higher?
But please help me know
Why do I want to give up so much?
From ever knowing what is left of my life?
