A FRIEND TO THE END

Death Oh! Sweet Death
He Was Young
A Teenager in His Youth
He Lived His Life
Or Did He?
He Was Reckless
Now He, Lies Lifeless
Abandoned Alone
Death His Only Comfort
They Have Become Friends
They Enjoy Each Other
Perhaps that’s All He Needed
A Friend Indeed
True Till the End
Though Worlds Apart
They Understand One Another
All He Wants Is
Die Quick
So They Can Be Together
In That Place of Peace
Serenity and Bliss
Sorrow Amiss
Joy Infinite
Pain And Hurt No More.

Freedom, to you we’re bound If not, then death be it No more shall we be slaves. ...

Lying unconsciously probably even dead. I have failed as a man and father. But I die, not for myself, but for that child struggling to breathe Even as you drain all your energy on me Ask yourself this; are you better than me? Then you will understand. That I die for others but myself. I can stomach having nothing, In my stomach for one week. But the pain would be too much. For my three year old son. huddled somewhere in the cold. The only thing on, his skinny frame. And now you beat up his only hope. All because I borrowed a packet of milk. To save my only lifeless child. My life is in your hands and so is my son's. I cry these tears not for the pain I feel. But I cry for that little child. Cuddled up in the cold Perhaps waiting for me with hope of something to eat. God look after him for me ...
