Why do you taunt me so?
Why do you make me live like I am not really living?
Why do I feel that when you come for me you would not be merciful?
Why do I feel like you would be cruel and you will not be in haste?
Why do you tease me so?
You come close but you go away again.
In my sick bed, you were there, when I wriggled in pain that left my body without feeling and my mind dead and I begged for you to ease my suffering
But you went away
The doctors called it a miracle, but I know better
You take away the strong and leave the weak,
The good men and leave evil,
The young, the old, fathers, sons, mothers and daughters
You take away promise and hope for a future
You see, it’s not you that I fear.
It’s your means
It’s the way you take and It's when you take
But I am tired of living with this fear.
What is the essence of life if I cannot truly live and enjoy living?
So tonight, I have decided that I will fear you no longer
For tonight, I will sleep, calmly and beautifully and without fear... unto eternity.
