Everyday I envision my demise,
I even see myself buried in a casket
With insects crawling through my mouth
and the sockets of my eyes.
Laying still, no more blood flow,
embalming fluid in my insides,
flesh slowly decomposing as the seasons
come and go like the oceans tides.
Everyday I envision my demise
because no one lives forever
eventually everyone dies, whether from
natural causes, freak accidents, or homicides
there’s not a soul on earth who’ll make it
out of life alive.
This is why everyday I envision my demise
so that I can appreciate every breath
and cherish the beauty of life.
