Life or death inside the walls of a dead end

I hear breaths being taken, some first some last.
People leaving quickly, some say that they passed
On forward I move I see life taken and given.
Fighting for their lives they're determined and driven.

Cries of life, as a baby comes out of the womb.
Anguish for the others who are close to the tomb.
So is this life or death? Is this the beginning or end?
Contemplating questions with no answers I'm at a dead end.

My grandpa couldnt sleep cause of his back.
Went to the doctors and got a CAT scan for that.
A few weeks later results in what is the answer?
My biggest fear, the worse case, one word...cancer.

I sobbed uncontrollably still I started weezing.
Constantly shaking like a homless person freezing.
Now he's in the place that I observed before.
I'm on the elevator approaching the 2nd floor.

He smiled when he saw me his emotions concealed.
I prayed to God every night that he would be healed.
He's hurting so bad they got him taking vicodin.
I just want for him to experience life again.

Cancer spread, no words, just tears, no thoughts just fears.
Praying for a miracle, please God let it be near.
So is this life or death? Is this the beginning or end?
Contemplating questions with no answers I'm at a dead end.
