• Yet another year gone
    All the days pass too quickly
    And death comes ever closer
    Following like an unwelcome friend
    Through the snow covered streets
    We walk hand in hand
    Fear keeping constant company
    That this breath may be my last

    Still through the endless nights I wonder
    When all is said and done
    The final beat of my heart be given
    What will become of my name?

    Will I be remembered for my gentle eyes
    Spoken of with reverence
    Have tears shed on my behalf?
    Or will unspoken words of anger
    All be made known
    With apologies I could never give?

    The clock continues to tick
    Time continues to pass
    And when my life is done
    I hope to have spent my years well
    Not wasting on hate and silly pride
    But living in each moment
    To love without regret
    To laugh without pain
    And to dance as if it were my very last
