Afraid to Die
If you are afraid to die
Then you are not ready
A person is like a light bulb
The light comes from within
Death extinguishes light
from the outside in
But the live wires of life
will still remain
Waiting on someone to turn the switch on again
Death pats itself on the back but then
Life puts the dagger into
it's empty hand
