I am dying soon
I don’t know when and I don’t know how but I am dying soon and will be away
That feeling when you know you might not get to see another tomorrow
So you appreciate everything you can see, smell or touch today
So you can remember all that was
So you dont forget the day
If I return, will I have deja vu
Or will I forget my entire existence and will it be put on display
Will I be laid to rest in peace
Or will they dig me up like my ancestors and say hooray
I am dying soon
I hope when I go it will be at some ease
Will it be unexpected
Like getting diagnosed with an incurable disease
Or will someone try to take my life
With something I did not foresee
Whatever the case may be
Hopefully I found all the missing keys
If I get to start over
Maybe it won’t be with all the abuse and extremes
Maybe I will get to just live
And feel the beautiful day and everlasting breeze
