How Will I Leave This World

How will I leave this world Will I go out as I have come in Kicking and screaming Born of sin? Or will I simply close my eyes After saying some tearful goodbyes To all of those I love and cherish How will I leave this world? And will I be ready Ready to leave this world Ready to no longer see each day anew Or the moon's haunting shadows. Will I have done all the things I've set out to do Loved all the people That I've wanted to. Danced all my dances Sangs all my songs Written all the words That I've wanted to. I highly doubt it. I highly doubt That I'll be ready To leave this world. (January 27, 2011 Wausau, Wisconsin) (c) Copyright 2011 by Christine A Kysely, All Rights Reserved
