Oh, a profound subject indeed is Death!
It's nagging mystery absorbs the mind.
What will it be like when the time is set-
Will the last breath feel so cruel or kind?
Will the hearing slowly fade and be so numbed
Lips be speechless as the nerves lose their sense?
Dried be the throat as the body there succumbs
To its final passage into eternal absence?
Can there be a way to bargain for more time?
A negotiation that perhaps can sway the fate,
Yet the sureness of its coming's like a crime-
Death never cancels dates, he is never late.
