Janice Herzog Poet ABC

Life Or Death

If you knew there was something wrong,
Would you really want to be gone?
Wouldn't you seek a treatment,
Hoping for more time to be spent?
Heaven is a beautiful paradise,
But life itself can be just as nice
Being alive is so worthwhile,
For it always makes me smile
But when it's over and you're dead,
You leave behind a sense of dread
