You never know when your life will end...

I remember when we were small
You'd always come over, we'd talk
You'd tell me how much you love life.
How much you never want to die.

I was the one to tell you that life sucks,
It isn’t worth the tortures that come up.
I never thought that something would've changed my mind.
Until the day you died.

It was another sunny morning, I was going over to my friends.
I almost got there, but the news had hit me.
” Your cousin's dead, He's never coming back."
Some people that walked by just told me simply.

I stopped, just stood there, not knowing what to do.
Should I believe this or should I keep going, ignoring these horrible news.
Maybe it's just another joke, maybe this never happened, I had thought,
But deep inside I knew it did, he's never coming back.

I ran, ran back with all the strength I had, tears streaming down my face,
Some strangers looking like it was some circus, it was just another joke to them.
I saw his house I walked in, a note awaited, I slowly picked it up and read it.
I'm sorry that I never told you I was sick.

I knew this day would come and now I guess it did.
I'm feeling weird; my life is passing rite in front my eyes.
I'm scared, but still I wonder what it's like to die. I wonder if I'll dream, if I will love.
And now it's getting hard to breather, and hard to write, I’m sorry but it's time to say goodbye.

******** This is a true story, my cousin died when he was 9 from cancer, and he never told me that he had it.
But today he is still remembered and always will be in my heart.
~~~Enjoy every second of your life, because you never know when it will end~~~
