-When Death Decides


Death shows no consideration

No regard for age or time

No idea of inconvenience

Death will never change its mind


Death does not discriminate nor negotiate 

Has no favourites, feels no sorrow

When death comes for you

There will be no tomorrow

Death is terrible. Few think about it. At my age, it is like a spectre for me. But after death, there is a new life.

When death comes knocking don't answer the door. But if he's determined he'll kick the door in anyway, no one gets out alive. Tom

I say try to keep moving...it's harder for the blighter to hit a moving target. A sober write my friend but undeniably true. Dare I say, 'cheers'...got to laugh at the executioner. Take care my friend...
