Allow me to share something you shouldn't know,
I am really building myself a cottage,
Its just that I lay each brick with so much purpose,
as I craft the comouflage to pretend its a castle,
so when my time comes to die I shall be proud,
Embrace the tomb I shall have built for myself,
A place my spirit can visit and watch my body decompose...
Kanyari you are so brave to talk about death though it will come one day. Its good to be prepared spiritually. Thanks for your honesty
