Hard To Understand...
It's hard to understand life and the baggage it comes with
No one understands the mystery of how death operates
Death comes like a thief at night and sometimes unnoticed too
No one is far from its reach; the young and the old
You sometimes wonder if it's a punishment for a crime
If it is, what's the crime of a little baby that hasn't experienced life?
You will see someone full of life get called up yonder
Disengaged from the life on earth and from loved ones which makes me wonder
It's something no one can full understand so I stopped to ponder
I remember a smart and kind lady I met for just 8 hours
She was full of life, energetic, loved and yet snatched
She eased her way into everyone's heart as evident with how she gets along
I stood afar, watching her and I didn't even say hello
That first time meeting, it was obvious she's bubbly
Her calm aura and beauty is so obvious for everyone to see
She dressed so simple but still delectable too
Before the end of that day, death took her away
How can someone so strong, agile and full of energy go just like that?
Now, she was hit, rendered with no strength
She was searched for in all the length
Until she was found breathless, lifeless and in a pool of her blood
Met her less than a day but the memory stays
She left impression on me in hours than some did in years
I remember you today again as I do yearly
Sleep on, beautiful and kind Mercy...I wish I knew you longer...
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

This is heartbreaking, of course. Unexpected death isn't always a good thing. I'm aware that it will come as such a shock. Your memory of it might last a lifetime.
Death is a mystery. We think that death is something that is coming at us quickly, but in reality, we are moving quickly toward it. We are left with no choice but to witness the beauty in the destruction of every moment that was so meticulously planned.
Enjoy life, be hurt, be disappointed, be rich, be fun, be anything, because we are given the opportunity to do so, unlike death.
Enjoy life because death cannot be stopped. It will happen to everyone at different times. We have to enjoy the emotions of life with the thrills and downsides.
Exactly! Just do what is best for us. Death is always a mystery. I don't agree with "you only live once," but I do agree with "you only die once," so spend it with no regrets.
You only for once...we live in the heart of those who love us. You are so smart.
Spend it as if it were your last day on earth.
Absolutely.
Death cannot be stopped. It comes to everyone eventually. Thanks for this wonderful addition too.
Death doesn't give any opportunity and that's why we need to make the most out of life. Death is a mystery and it's hard to understand it's operations. We have to live and enjoy life the way we can. Thanks for this wonderful comment.
She left a lasting impression than most left in years, ouch. That's life. It's not always about those we know the longest. I believe Mercy is resting and in a better place. No more toiling, no more stress. Her memory lingers.
She definitely left a good impression without necessarily speaking with me. I observed a lot about her kind of person in less than a day and it's sad to see her go just like that.
This is a sad truth of life, it is crazy and saddening how life is..
Unpredictable life...we just have to keep going regardless.
💯💯💯
Death is the punishment we get for eating the forbidden apple 🥺
Sad thing is, those we want for long gets taken early and those we feel should go get to stay hahaha
That's true 🥺
This is a piece which seethes within an intense wrong that there is no accountability for. We cannot fight the tides of life, and we will never know their mysteries. A bright light passes too soon, while a corrupt individual lives till ninety.
You capture this emotion of how fleeting life can be, how unpredictable, very well! It is amazing how much of an impact someone can have on us in a short time... Thank you for sharing :) !LUV
This is one beautiful and absolutely spot on comment. Indeed, some things are hard to understand... Thank you so much for this
Life can be all too short Ola, be thankful you did meet her for 8 hours and have memories.
Life is indeed short and I am grateful to have at least had that encounter with her...better than nothing. Thank you so much, partner. 🤗🤗🤗
In the end only the legacy you will be left behind, speaking for many years to come
