My life is like the winter months turning into spring

My life is like an elderly owl teaching the young 

My life is like an ice cube in the summer

My life is like a flower, soft and gentle

My life is like an eagle waiting to be freed 

My life is like the fun at a waterpark 

My life is like an hourglass trickling down at a slow rate

My life is like a tree on the hill looking down on everyone 

My life is like a seal wanting to explode with emotions 

My life is like an hourglass running out of time

My life is like the teaching of a parent to a child

My life is like an old house at the end of a subdivision 

My life is like a school year coming to an end

My life is like the flow of the Mississippi  river leading to the ocean

My life is like the taste of older cheese 

My life is like a hatchling making its way to the ocean 

My life is like a moon rotating around a planet

My life is like an hourglass with little sand left 


My life is perfect but can I fear what happens next?

My life is like Socrates and his teaching 

My life is like a book it must surely end one day

My life is perfect but I will not fear what comes next

My life has put its mark on history

My life is like an hourglass with little time left 

Death is inescapable but I will not fear it because it's my life


The author's comments:

I was inspired by my 2nd cousin who ended his life a while back and my grandfather whose time is running out and is afraid of what happens after death.
