Live by the Sword

and die by the Sword.

Die as a servant

in the name of a lord.

Live as a villain

and die as a hero.

Live by words spoken

and die once awoken.

Live under a hot sun

before becoming frozen.

Live revering love

or end up broken.

Live a life desired

or die far from tired.

Live chasing a dream

because life is brief.

Die turning a new leaf.

Don’t forget to breathe.

Live a life with purpose.

Don’t get off the ride.

Die with nothing left

except those by your side.

Live with zero regrets.

Die with nothing to hide.

Live letting everything go

before the last episode.

Live by facing fears

or walk the same old road.

Die knowing you lived life.

Live with the brightest light

that illuminates dark nights.

Die happy. Go out laughing.

Live knowing life is a gift.

Die knowing all will be missed.

      I guess you could say that! Sometimes, get in the mood to just ponder the fragility of life and how death is a motivator for us to try to be as fulfilled as possible in this journey. Thank you for reading!
