Walking Into Death Poem by twina mbelwa

Walking Into Death



My head is empty, my heart is full
I think i'm close to death
My heart is pumping but i can't pull
My lungs so i can take a breath

Faintly i see his face over mine
My body is filled with joy
And suddenly my heart feels just fine
Eventhough he's just one boy

slowly his face just fades away
And that's when i see the light
I know i wont live another day
I wont even see the night.

I've been fighting this war for too long
It's time to accept my fate
Because cancer is just another song
And i can't fight it coz it's too late

To the world i give my last smile
Eventhough, closed are both my eyes
my heart's too weak and fragile
And i'm now the angel that flies

I welcome death with my whole heart
I submit to be its slave
From my crumbling body i can now part
Life..i will no longer crave
