LIFE N' DEATH

DEATH is something that belongs to LIFE

LIFE is something that belongs to DEATH…

All I know is that LIFE is something that eludes us

As we SO desperately try to save us from ourselves

I guess this is why they say LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!

For DEATH is the MAIN COURSE

Though I am in awe

I am VERY much mystified

For how do you prepare for DEATH?

Is it fair that we are merely a SILENT witnesses,

Quietly watching as DEATH takes over us?

Why are we here only to disappear

With feelings that inside out watching life unfold?

Am I supposed to believe that is LIFE’S incomplete completeness?

But if I were to confess

I would have to say NO

For this is certainly is NOT the end…

But then again…

My imagination gets the best of me

And thoughts that seem unsound go around AND around AND…

Now I try to find the LIFE in the dark pit of DEATH

But don’t pay me any mind,

I am just being me

And next time I will keep the thoughts of LIFE N’ DEATH to myself

How do I achieve such a thing,

When you keep taking people away?

Leaving me with ideas that reflect ideas

Is my intellect or a combination of man too much too soon?

I know I will figure it out one day,

I will know why the idea of LIFE N’ DEATH seems so far away…

All we can do is die to find out why we got the call

As we bounce back N’ forth like a ball…

But once and for all

When all was all

And time ran out of time

You left me walking a fine line
