Born To Die
Life’s one and only guarantee
is one of Death for you and me,
no other promise can it make
however long your Life may take.
In certainty we can be sure
that Death will be the final cure,
for nothing we can ever do
will change the end for me and you.
Is Life or Death the spirit’s home,
are both just places that we roam,
and are these places where we dwell
both shared again by Heaven and Hell.
If all dimensions interlink
maybe mankind should stop and think,
for Life and Death and Heaven and Hell
may form eternity as well.
Life’s one and only guarantee
is one of Death for you and me,
but Death may hold a promise too
depending what you choose to do....
