Will of My Life-W
I have lived life as it were last day
But learn each day as if I’ll forever.
I would not look at the clock
And I would not my heart lock.
If death is a certainty in life
It is love’s labor’s lost to strive
Then why should one but a death fear
As I understand death is but a slumber.
It is just sleep in eternity to rise
It is the very death that dies.
Life is eternal so I don’t die
To me death is not a dramatic event
It’s neither an end nor deliverance
Life is only a stage, a passage
A brief moment in a cosmic cycle.
I have no regrets of the life I lived
And have lived the life full to its brim
I am ready to go as predestined
Lord, untie the strings to my life.
If today is last day, tomorrow too late
I would say good bye to yesterday.
