Finale?
I don't want to live forever.
Nor do I wish to die too soon..
I will make it my endeavour.
To treat each new day as a boon.
I remember way back when.
I thought that I would never die.
Age taught me to think again
As the years flew swiftly by.
Each day I wake I'm positive
That fate has plans in mind for me,
and that is why I'm still alive.
I know I'll die eventually.
I plan to enjoy every day
until the call I must obey.
