Reactive In Death

You all have gathered, though I don’t know why To mourn a life that was a woeful lie My hypocrisy seemed to show no bounds And left you in pain, with no closure found I can’t take back my hurtful ways Though I tried in my last dying days I wish I had shown it unto my last breath I failed to express emotion, even in death So I leave you now to mourn and grieve In hopes that tomorrow sheds some relief For if one thing you should take from my strife Is live for today and live your very best life

what a coincidence. I too posted my words on my death, just now :) I can feel the pain and regret. Yes, its equally painful for the one who dies! True emotions in ink!
