The Last Breath

A few months back, I happened to find a video in youtub. It was featuring the death of a young footballer on field with a song in the background that had its lyrics so strong and awakening. I must say that it literally haunted me for days. The video started with small and soft words which was capable enough to trigger the thought of why this race in life, followed by a song which as I said had a strong lyric, which I'm sure is flown from an awakened mind.

Though it was featuring a scene so unbearable, the way it was thought was simply awesome.

This is how it was…

The Last Breath

From those around, I hear a cry,
An awful, soft and a hopeless sigh.
I hear their footsteps leaving slow...
And then I know my soul must fly.

A chilly wind begins to blow
Within my sole from head to toe
And then the last breath escapes my lips,
It’s time to leave.

So it’s true but it’s too late.
They said each soul has its given date
When it must leave its body's core
And meet with its eternal fate.

Oh! Mark that I do say
Who knows tomorrow could be your day
At last it’s come to Heaven or hell
Decide which now. Do not delay.

"Oh God! Oh God!"
I cannot see
My eyes are blind
And I still me?

Or has my soul...
Been led astray
And forced to pay
A priceless fee?

Alas to dust we all return
And shall rejoice when others burn
If only I knew that before
The line grew short and came my turn.

And now as beneath the soil they lay me with
My record flawed they cried not knowing
I cried worse for they go home
And face my god.

Oh! Mark that I do say
Who knows tomorrow could be your day
At last it’s come to Heaven or hell
Decide which now. Do not delay.
