So the Doc's all say
Soon it will just stop
and
I will drop

Feeling fear knowing that my death is near
They could not have made it anymore clear
That it will happen
I may not see the next year
So living to make this year
A great year
I will for sure persevere

My real fear
Is not having my family near

Every time the pain hits
I think " Well this is it"
This time it will quit

Some will question
Why are you writing this
Just trying to keep my wit

With the thoughts of my impending death
Knowing that I will soon take my last breath
Scares me to death

So they say only the good die young
My saving grace
And
My heart does embrace

!!
