    About this ebook

    This book of poetry contains fourteen poems, all dealing with death in one way or another. Some deal with the loss of a loved one, some are purely fictional, suspenseful. Whatever you're looking for, there's something for everyone in this darker collection. This book is an excerpt, one section, taken from the complete poetry collection, Love, Life and Death.
