When the Angel of Death comes knocking…

What would you do if the angel of death came knocking on your door today?
Would you open up willingly,
Scream for him to go away
Or
Hide under the bed and pretend that no one’s there?

What would you do if the angel of death stood beside you right now?
Would you embrace him like a long awaited friend,
Fall down on your knees and beg for more time
Or
Close your eyes and shiver with fright?

What would you do if the angel of death told you that it’s time to go?
Would you take his hand accept the call,
Turn, run and jump a wall
Or
Curl up into a tight ball?


What would you do if the angel of death led you on to go?
Would you look ahead with quiet anticipation,
Be dragged along with dreadful expectation
Or
Look behind with sorrowful realisation?


Well, the angel of death is on his way
Your name and mine are definitely on his list
What are we going to do?
Accept our fate and be true
Reject the truth and eternally regret
Or
Close our eyes and fret?

Let’s decide now.
