Dying To Live
We get told to keep climbing,
so you don’t start admiring,
the life you could have had if you would have kept fighting,
but the desire leaves your eyes,
when you start to realize,
the harder that you fight the live the faster you start to die.
So after I am dead,
when this message is finally read,
I hope people will finally see me as the one who died to live.
