no. 4 - Life and Death

I don't think Death is ugly.
I think it just has its own colors.
Ones you can't see until this life is over.
Life is vibrant as we can all see,
and I believe death has its own beauty.
It brings value to everything around.
From the birds in the sky,
to the grass on the ground.
It brings us seasons and changes.
It makes us grateful
Teaches us to appreciate each moment.
You never know which will be the last.
You never know how much time you have.
However, so long as I cannot see the colors of death.
I will buy flowers, and paint in color,
and try my absolute best,
to not forget the colors of the living.
