The only thing I haven't done yet is die

by kaida clover   Nov 22, 2007


I have seen the real world threw these green demonic eyes
I know its secrets and have seen its harsh dark realities
Experienced its harshest most trying emotions and lived to tell the tales
Fought countless demons and felt the embrace of angels in my arms
Felt the sweet seduction of a lovers lips upon mine
I've gazed twice into the eyes of infants upon there birth
Seen the wonders of life and felt them seep inside my soul
I have lost myself within my own self only to be reborn a new
Sacrificed everything and anything for the benefit of others
I've put a strangers well being before that of my own
I have taught and learned and still do to this day
Words have left my mouth spoken against injustice and lies
I have lead by example and stood for others when they could not
I have done right and wrong and lived the outcome of both
I loved and hated with all of my mind and heart,
But most of all I have lived
The only thing I haven't done yet is die

    This is a really good piece... i love the way you ended it-- with a line from fall out boy woo!! but seriously, the closing line really sums up life and the way it should be lived... a great piece!
