I should be
glad to see the back of a life filled with sorrow
But anxiety
consumes me when I think of tomorrow
Is it
doggedness that keeps us clinging to life?
Even one so
wretched and torn with strife
Does
fortitude pervade us until that final breath?
Stubbornly
trying to resist the finality of death
My fate is
sealed and I no longer have a choice
The
Samaritans fighting injustice have lost their voice
They really
tried their best but it didn’t go to plan
But at least
they believe that I’m an innocent man
The hardest
part was my family and saying our last goodbyes
And those
final embraces with tears in our eyes
It was then
it hit me that this is all real
And I
couldn’t even eat my very last meal
Tonight I’ll
stay awake and watch the hours go by
Waiting for
that time when morning is nigh
Consciously
aware of every single breath
Knowing they
will get deeper as I approach death
