Death, so called, is a thing which makes men weep, And yet a third of life is passed in sleep.
Lord ByronI planned my death carefully, unlike my life, which meandered along from one thing to another, despite my feeble attempts to control it.

One of the gravestones in the cemetery near the earliest church has an anchor on it and an hourglass, and the words In Hope.
In Hope. Why did they put that above a dead person? Was it the corpse hoping, or those still alive?
Everybody has got to die, but I have always believed an exception would be made in my case.
William SaroyanTags: death
I have outlasted all desire,
My dreams and I have grown apart;
My grief alone is left entire,
The gleamings of an empty heart.
The storms of ruthless dispensation
Have struck my flowery garland numb,
I live in lonely desolation
And wonder when my end will come.
Thus on a naked tree-limb, blasted
By tardy winter's whistling chill,
A single leaf which has outlasted
Its season will be trembling still.
