And so too Preclude a Fitting Just End
Lately I have been kept up at night
Pondering over a fitting and just end
To lend this sorry take of woe
So here I go as nothing else I have got or know
Goodbye farewell to this life
And everyone and everything I have seen
As although sometimes it came across as a dream
Unfortunately somehow I managed to awake daily
And the only thing of value I gained
Over my said lifetime is this
If the only you leave behind and wish to pass on
Is given if life already isn't hard enough
Then why not try to add further to the misery
And rather try to rise above the norm
And simply just try to do your best be polite and pleasant
So that when you as everyone does eventually leave
Shall come to be remembered fondly and effectionately
And will be missed for all the right reasons
Who can count themselves truly blessed
And lucky enough to have spent time in your company
Because you surely therefore will have lead
A full and meaningful life
And hopefully in turn will also during your ife
Grant you having more good days than bad days
And a heroic sudden peaceful death
In order for you to be enabled to then
R.I.P
In the here afterlife you so wished
