dying flame

Do you think
That a flame
Knows when it’s dying
Do you think
It feels a smothering,
A sense of hunger?
Will I know when my time has come
Will I accept it with open arms-
Or will I gasp and sputter
Throw embers frantically
Grasping on for life between the branches

[Gee]

I'm gonna go out kicking and screaming as life is to precious and short lived :)
