Deathbed
Folder:
Lyrical Inspiration I lie here waiting
To be taken home.
I realize as I take
My last breath,
We all die alone.
On my deathbed,
I look back at my life
Rather lifeless
And incomplete.
Moments before
I am united with
The One who made me
He shows me
What I missed:
When my children
Were growing up,
I was busy in my own hobbies.
When my husband
Was loving me,
I wasn’t even loving myself.
When He died for me,
I was mocking Him,
Rejecting Him.
“Too late”,
He whispered,
“I gave you many opportunities
To appreciate how
You were blessed.”
But I was entertaining myself
With the notion
That I was happy without Him.
And now I see,
Life was meant for Him;
That true joy comes
From pleasing our Creator.
And with a final gasp,
I called out to Him
To take me home
To a place where
I’d be eternally blissful.

You're right; no one truly dies alone in that there are people around them but they do "die alone" in that the other person doesn't die at the same time unless it's an accident or joint suicide. That's what I meant.
like this poem...but nobody dies alone..cuz u always have someone that's gonna be right by ur side til u die..or they may even die w/u...other words they'll die when u die..even if they haft to be stupid and commit suicide.
