Thoughts On An Ending

I often wonder how death will begin and will there be a warning sign to heed. Will I feel something way down deep within Is it the end, no matter what my creed Of course, it could be just a sudden blow No time to think or weigh the consequence of how I lived my life, my deeds to tow No time for words to come to my defense Will there be lights or helping hands to see the smiles of those we love long gone from earth Or will light be a silent absentee with only darkness left to judge my worth No matter how it ends, the seeds are sown I’m grateful for this life that I have known 11/9/17

We can never know how death will come.. As a cancer survivor, I am happy, I did not die from a terminal illness... I think i would prefer a quick death.. Deep write..
