Analysis of Life and Death
You wake up in the morning
Not knowing if it's your day
Your day to continue to live
Or the day for a Time to die
Live the best way you know how
If you haven't it's a good time to try
Never know when the silver
Lining detach.
It's then time to unlatch
The reality to except
That' life has a new ending
It's a start of a new beginning.
