Am I Chasing Death Alone

Am I Chasing Death Alone 
Life is short 
Alone or with someone 
Being single 
Less trouble 
Easier on your wallet 
I’m kind of selfish 
No Kids 
Peace and quiet 
Lonelyness I’ve become 
Isolation, cling to no one 
Who’s going to care for you when you're old? 
Something to think about 
Emptiness all around 
You can’t have both 
Am I Chasing Death Alone? 
Silent rooms 
Memories of one 
Grow old under the sun 
A lonely life 
The end could be any time 
A journey of melancholy 
No one to stop by and visit me 
In the cemetery 
Have another drink alone 
Amber whisky, numb
