How Do You Want To Die?

by Truest Lies   Dec 27, 2005


Do you want to fall,
Slipping silently over space,
For a precious moment contained in eternity,
Then pushed down,
Even further than the ground,
To a pit of darkness so deep,
You will never climb out.

Would you prefer to die in your bed,
After your last words have been said,
To all you hold beloved,
Who watch you as you sleep,
And as you are finally dead.

Or to push another being,
Away from a fatal blow,
To take it yourself,
And die a hero.

There are many ways to die,
And there are many people who have fallen,
Or bled.
This is my question.
How do you want to die?

And my answer is;
Not yet.
