I disagree with the response. I felt like the poem was talking about the regrets that a person has on their death bed. That they didn't reach enough people throughout their life or didn't do all the things they wanted to. I don't think its saying don't be a wuss, it seems like a advice from a death bed telling people to do all that they want to do so they don't have regrets when their time comes.
