Looking Death In the Face

Looking Him straight in the face,
I wait for his choice,
To take me or to leave me,
I have no voice,

I wait for his choice,
For better or for worse,
I have no voice,
I will accept His answer,

For better or for worse,
To take me or to leave me,
I will accept His answer,
Looking Him straight in the face.

I really like where you went with this. Except, I might disagree... I don't know. It's quite a serious thing. Either way, great write.
