Me Last Hour

Me last hour

Unhappy guy, though I will die,
Soon be long forgotten,
Doesn’t really matter ,
Rotten cancer is the why.

They showed me the xray,
Me liver has it yes,
Bones are almost rotten,
With cancer’s sour caress.

Doctors say use radium,
I say piddle off or worse,
A few hevvy pain killers,
Look out here comes the hearse.

Don Johnson  20-july-11

Robb A. Kopp Contest Name:"My Last Hour"

death don't want me baby doll,
healthy as a hogn moll,
guess i get into playin the part,
and friends have died the hurtin part...
loves ya blue,
Don

Brilliantly penned out. Cancer has showed it`s face on my family, and a few friends. Know exactly where you`re coming from.
