DEATH- A NEW BEGINNING:

"I want to live", She chuckles

The stars shone bright and the city lights beamed outside,

On the hospital bed staring at the halogen lamps hanging overhead,

She wished to be lying under the moonlight and sniff fresh air,

Squeezing her eyes, she goes off to her own new world,

She was loose to breathe and wondered where her soul desires,

Found herself drenching in the rain and screaming her name,

Walked miles and miles on the infinite road,

Living like a Queen in the castle built by her own,

There's someone at the door wants to come inside,

She was in love with her solitude doesn't want anyone in,

There was a bang and he gets in, laughing at the Queen,

The intruder came closer,

And wished to take her with him,

She closed her eyes feeling peace and calmness at the same time,

Stirred up with a beep of her ventilator aside,

She found a familiar feeling with her eyes open wide,

Realizing the invader wasn't unknown to her,

She believed that the earth is not the end but a beginning of new Life.
