if death is on the other side of the door than let me see what is waiting for me


Taken at birth
given to mother earth
my pure body lays cold
as the ground starts to uphold
given a choice Life
or Death
lost in my age
god is the only way
but, i have many dues to pay
as your rays of life recreate
i still lay in vain
waiting for my form to raise
seeing your smile is all i hold dear
when all i dream of is fear
as your smile leads to tears
only i can't stop from seeing the years
creating the rise and fall
dust to dust you will live on
within very little to look upon
burning in my chest i will be reborn
with knowledge 2x what i had before
leaving this old body in which i am you
only the younger few
but you lead
