Member-only story
Escaping Hades
Do not cry for me, dear friends
For this is not a day for sorrow
My departure means that nothing ends
We will all be together at some distant tomorrow
Remember what I’ve done
For it was a true and good way to go
A life filled with love and fun
And yes, some suffering and pain as you may know
But all is not lost
For this is not the end of the line
Always know that life has a steep cost
Somehow, you’ll see things are just fine
Remember the times we spent with a smile
Not the story of how we got to today
Think fondly of me for a while
And consider some nice words you can say
Always, I’ve known, I would meet this grim fate
If I were there, no reason to cry about it now to you I’d say
This is the truth of mankind, we come with an expiration date
Death is the price that all men pay
Death is not an end, but a journey to be taken
One that I’ll tell you about someday
Life, it isn’t something to be forsaken
And time isn’t something to let get away
