TakingCare

God gave us the Bible book,
a reference for living in earth's nook.
One book for all occasions,
with many stories of persuasions.
Referenced to help us take care,
live a little longer with some to spare.


Surely we have a final day,
we also have some control in say.
Life is constructed this way,
we all just don't up and pass away.
Some of us learn to take care,
live longer because we're aware.


Playing the game of Russian roulette,
could be one we may die to regret.
How long do you want to live,
just how much of yourself do you want to give?
The drums of destiny surely will call,
no one really knows the day they will fall.


Living in a mind of comfortability,
most learn to stray from hostility.
Life is mostly a mental drain,
so philosophies usually comfort the coming rain.
We all know we're going to die,
we all know we're going to suffer and cry.


But do we all know how to enjoy,
before life comes to destroy.
In my mind I'm going to live forever,
death will come never.
Even when the grime reaper arrives,
comfort of mind forever thrives.
The physical body may go,
my mental energy never so.
My words will keep me alive,
parts of me will forever thrive.


Fear not physical death,
mentally live forever wealth.
Plant joy of life in the brain,
fear not the coming rain.
Instead,
fear not being able to have joy,
and
not having the sense to enjoy.
Even when down,
joy can be found.
Even in physical death,
joy of rest in wealth.


Fear becoming a part of the walking dead,
the ones who live in hate and dread.
They don't have to die,
death already has their head.
When you learn joy,
you learn of loves decoy,
taking care becomes like breath,
even as death crosses the path.
