7.Your on the verge of death in the hospital.
Your friends, family, ect are there.
What do you say to them as a group or individually?
-----------------------------------------
the drip of the IV silently echo's like thunder
underneath the covers i struggle.. and steadily wonder
what to say to my mother, her stare tares at my insides
alive, watchin her cry makes me wish that id' die
why must i say goodbye? so young and so scared of death
i believe in God, but no-one actually knows where we'll end
eyes scatter thruout the room, friends and family listen
room is a pool of tears that the onlookers are drippin
feelin like a freakshow, but their all there cause the care
waiting for me to say somethin, so i start with a prayer..
dear Lord, i beg your protection.. of all in this room
watch over them closely, for they know not what they do
bless them as they rest, and bless their food before they eat
bless their children and their familys, for life is so sweet
you gave us this chance, and most of us take it for granted
planted the seed of life in one, and then made it a habit
thank you Lord, for the time you let me enjoy on this Earth
ill search for you in heaven, as we all have from birth.. Amen
opening my eyes, glance around and see streams down faces
lace my hands into my mothers, can almost feel death chase'n
placed my head back in the pillow, tears ran down my cheeks
i feel weak but its too soon, let a smile and started to speak
think not that im dying, but being born into a life of the new
do as you wish in this world, remember times we've gone thru
remember the arguments and fights, also the hatred and wrath
along with the happy and joyous we all encounterd on this path
my love is equal for all, each of you hold a place in my soul
hold me at high regard, knowing one day, again we will stroll
but not thru the alleys, the malls or neighbors back yards
but ontop of clouds in heaven, where we're not running from guards
memories are sacred, never forget anyone standing before me
whats weird is, i'll still be twenty, and you all will look forty
all in all, i love you all, mom dad.. i'll miss you the most
youll be pissed at my pranks now, especially since ill be a ghost
close'n your cabinets, and postin obscene gestures on the wall
i recall you both sayin.. that id out live both of yall...
...but HA! as it turns it was a flaw and i proved you both wrong...
