Death By Surprise Poem by Taniicka Ismail

There comes to a day in life
When you have to say goodbye
To the people you love
Or even if you don’t love them,
Not because you want to
Or because you’re being forced
But because, it’s now or never.
This is it its time
Time to say what you always wanted to
What you didn’t have a chance to
Speak now or forever hold your speech I say.
There are lots of people in this world
A lot who don’t get the chance say goodbye
Some who even wanted to see the person
But never seen them in their lives
It could be friends or family
None of it is good news
Some get that chance and still remain speechless.
The most important thing to say is to ask for forgiveness.
It don’t ever feel good inside your heart
When you know you owe an apology to someone
And they are gone forever.
Death by surprise
We don’t always know
Know when a person’s life is going to be taken
Brothers and sisters
We should never take each other for granted
Disrespect each other
Abuse and hurt each other
If we always live peacefully
Make each other happy
The whole world would be a happy and a better place
A safe place for us to be
Even those who leave us
Will remain happy wherever they are.
