Our Curse

It started with a cry and ended in a grave
Who would have though that no one could be saved
An untimely death comes to us all    
No matter how much we wish it not to be true
Our life is cursed by our death, Its inevitable 
It can’t be stopped no matter how much you try
Death is a scary surprise
You never know who could be next 
or how much time each of us has left
Will death take you first or someone that you love
Only time can tell so you might as well
Live it up why you can  
Because no one knows death’s plan
