I don't want to die
its all too soon..
is it ever too late anyway
to see ones life pass by each day.

Haven't lived life at all
watched the suns first rays
or seen the Niagara falls.
Haven't held the dewdrops in my palm
nor seen the moon
in a hot air balloon

Haven't even counted them all
the stars in the sky
the cracks in the wall.
Haven't seen my son grow up to be
a husband ..a dad
or just as tall as me
Haven't even got to hold
my wife's wrinkled hand
my grandchild's chubby one.

That one fateful night
That crazy moment of passion
was all it took
for the virus to take its action.
it wont happen to me was all that I thought
its others who get THAT THING
and went out to have that one last fling.

I Am in Death's Snare
The virus kills-thats what they all say..
I am the actual killer I know
I killed all their hopes
I dashed all their dreams.
Won't be keeping all my promises
cos its time now to go..
There's so much to do
no time to whine
mustn't waste these precious moments of mine.

I am a Dead man walking through LIFE.
all by myself
Hibernating in Vacuo....
Death lives in us all.
I didn't know.
Tried to cheat even death itself.
Was such a grave mistake .
I won't outlive to regret.
