Description

Its been a long life But I can tell its finally winter Everything is getting cold And lonely Besides most of my friends Are waiting for me On the other side I’m not ready to go yet But fighting is for young men And I am sure tired of this fight There is a big difference between giving up And being ok with it It took a life time And I am not ready for it But I have reached a place Where I am ok with it

I can fully understand where you're coming from. It's better to be over the hill than under it, and I'm ok with that! Nice work!!

What beautiful words...You know, it makes sense, my Mom was always so afraid of dying, as I am...but when she was laying on her death bed she voiced aloud, begging God to take her....so your words are so true Randy!

Wonderful work and so true a sentiment. A wise man (in a movie) once said that death smiles at us all, and the least a man can do is smile back. Funny what you pick up in movies. The one is question is Gladiator. Your poem here resonates with that line, that sentiment, and its good to see that death is not a thing that people are always so willing to struggle against. Death, after all, like any friend, will sometimes listen when you declare: Not Yet.
