Thoughts of Death, Will To Live
Death is only a dream,
That seems like eternity,
From which you wake up...
And then find yourself
Someplace, somewhere else.
Another has taken their own life,
Again these people are feeling
Even more emotional strife.
Once have had thoughts of doing the same…
(To eventually give up on my own life…)
But then I give consideration
Towards other people’s
Thoughts and feelings…
I’ll give them each a lifetime’s moments of me
Being alive…
As I go through this dark tunnel,
I always strive for the light at the end.
For now, those who are gone,
Their spirit brighten this lantern of mine.
