life

By sandy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

It's not the dying that scares me so. It's missing out on all life holds. I want to live, to laugh, to cry, to grow old and tired before I die. After I've lived through many a night, of fun and laughter or toil and fright. When my ears grow dim When my eyes lose sight. When my body is weary, Let my soul take flight. I want to feel all of life. Even the troubles, toils, and strife. It's not so bad to give in and go when people say.... She lived a full life you know. © on Jun 11 2001 10:03 AM PST   0 • 10
