Who am I to say..
when others decide the decree..
What am I to do..
when forever is bound to stay..
Where is that place, where others cry in vain
How shall I remain.. when I have gone away?
Knowing of the hate, the hate of change..
seeing my death, the ample remains..
they are that is left.. when I leave..
this word shall be shadows,
shadows of a life not lived..
and though, at the time, they seem right
could there be another fight , frightning
gasp of life..
within these young bones, a old soul seems to grow..
tired of all these trespasses
and weary of time..
when all is forgotten..
will it not still remain the same?
so I tread ever onward...to that which..
I hate...

Very intriguing work. I don't know that I hate the thought of Death, but I hate the thought of growing old..."We die a little more everyday", though, that is kind of a slow death. Nice work.

Well...I don't fear my own death.. I am like most people, selfish with others... I hate to see my companions....so few true ones, pass from my life.. I am not afraid of death..but, still, the only time I may welcome it will most likly be my own time..
