End To Being

Life before death.

By Raja smithPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

In reading a book you go from beginning to end

Letting the story unfold the way it should be told

So I ask you to forget what you have been taught and let it go...... As I skip to my end to being

I have seen things that scare me, and done what terrifies me,

Spoken words that deafen those who cannot translate,

I have heard the voice that lives in the silence within,

Been shown the lies of the world and the truth of the two edged sword,

Listened to the crazy and ignored the sane

Ate of the apple and played the game

Walked away from the wise just to lose everything including my pride.....

With all I've been told and all I was shown,

Living life thinking I was grown,

With lessons for which I did not learn,

I paid a price with my life, for the life I had led is the reason I am dead.

So I beg of you, please...

Don't do as I did but listen to what I have said...

Don't end to being,

It's boring being dead...
