birth of a death

Birth of a death

 

 

 

Lying in a hospital bed

Tubes running every which way

One final relieved sigh

Its time to say goodbye

 

Though this one has a smile

For they are ready to go

There life’s purpose has been fulfilled

And of this they do know

 

Soon enough they can fly

And earn their reward

Soon enough their time will have been spent

And they will see the lord

 

Soon enough the time will come

For them to make a space

For a new one to come on in

A new cute little face

 

They may be making room for a genius

Or just a hard worker

Maybe the one to replace them

Will be the second coming of him

 

So with a smile still

They bid farewell

To everything and all they have known

And not its time to be next in line

It is the birth of a death
