Indeed‚ when we are young we really are curious about things and would actually see for ourselves on something. Mr. Keating

This poem is essentially the speaker’s parting words to his love. We see that he is very conflicted about his life. Even as he looks death in the eyes he’s unsure as to what comes next.
