Death

There Comes A Time We All Must Die Some Don’t Care, While Others Cry Death Could Call Your Name Right Now No One Knows Who, Or When, Or How It’s Up To Death Which One He Takes It Could Be You, But That’s The Breaks Sometimes He Takes Those You Hold Dear And Other Times He’ll Come Quite Near To Let You Know, It’s Not Your Turn It’s Another Day That You Will Burn Sometimes Death Takes A Real Close Friend Don’t Stop To Think That This Will End Death Can’t Be Slowed, And Can’t Be Stopped He Won’t Give In ‘Til All Have Dropped And When He’s Done, He Sits And Grins ‘Cuz Don’t Forget, Death Always Wins But Don’t You Worry, And Don’t You Fret No, Death Has Not Called Your Name Yet And If He Does, Then You Will Know The Time Has Come For You To Go Death Isn’t Nice, Or Fun. Or Fair But He’s Around Us, Everywhere So Live Your Life, And Have Your Fun Don’t Try To Hide, Or Try To Run ‘Cuz Death Will Find, And Capture You And When He Does, Then You’ll Be Through So ‘Til That Time, Just Live Your Life Don’t Sit And Worry About The Knife Or Lay Awake, Counting Your Sins ‘Cuz They Don’t Matter, Death Always Wins Sometimes You’ll Think, Of Giving In And Start To Think, You Just Can’t Win Begin To Feel Life’s Not Worth Living That You’re The Only One Who’s Giving It’s Times Like These, You’ll Want To Cry Perhaps Decide, It’s Time To Die But Stop To Think, About Your Life About Giving Up, Hey! There’s A Knife! Now, Think About What You Should Do About How Many People Care For You And Realize, There’s Quite A Lot So Start To See Just What You’ve Got There’s All Your Friends, And Family There’s Quite A Few, As You Can See So Now You Know, You Can’t Give In When It’s Your Time, Death Will Win

It sure will, Michael, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
