Jack Cooper Poet Rhyme

I Lived Life My Way

There comes a day
When our time on earth takes us away
Everything in rewind 
Running through your mind
It's all on display 
In the most wonderful way
It all seems to unwind 
Like a movie that you can see 
If you were blind

No time to ask why 
As hard as we try
Our time on earth has passed us by
Everything extreme turned up on high
I'm going to miss you all as it's my turn to fly
Please do not cry for me
My time is here 
The time most of us fear 
When our time is near

Time on earth is so dear 
It all plays out like a big premiere
I love you all very much
Think of me often that way we stay in touch
Know that we all must die 
At this point, I'm not asking myself why
My heart is weak 
And soon I will cease to speak

When my soul will be released
To be able to fly into the sky 
Where I can shine on high
As each new day passes us by
Remember we learn to laugh and cry
Without asking each other why
Someday we will reunite 
When your flight comes into sight
Know everything between us set right

I'm tired of this fight 
My life with God will be so bright
For a piece of all of you, I take with me 
Now that my soul has been set free
Don't worry God is right beside me 
Now I have to let things be
Keep all your wonderful memories of you and me
Because our friendship was always meant to be
