Death can be a screaming
Frighting
Dark
Pain

Death can be a silent
Peaceful and
Forgiving
Soulful
End

To a life well lived
Or
To a life full of regrets

So to all
Who are in denial
Of a death that could be tomorrow

Remember that all were born to live
And all were born to die

To die in vain
Or
Die a death that they deserved

The end is the end
Whether
Of old age
Or whether Cancer decided it liked you

Live the life
You were given
Even if it's not how you expect life to be
And pass the knowledge
Courage
And
strength
To those who were
Given a life
After
You became
A memory.
