'' When And Where ''


My friendly G.P.
One day said to me,
Sit down I've got something to say,
The truth at times can be hard to see,
Don't let this cause any affray.

He sat there sighing,
I'd say almost crying,
We'd known each other for years,
To look at you you'd think I was dying,
His reaction confirmed my worst fears.

Right on cue,
He said yes it's true,
The prognosis is not very good,
My first thoughts were, who can I sue,
I didn't have much time to brood.

How long have I got?
Before I get caught,
Will I suffer much pain or strife?
Will I go to Heaven or somewhere hot?
After he has taken my life.

There none of us know,
So why feel low,
About when I will take that last breath,
No one has ever came back to show,
What exactly they mean by death.

As I started to smile,
He said you've got style,
The truth is you're not even worried?
If I were you I'd run a mile,
I insisted I would not be hurried.

When it's time to leave,
Give sorrow the heave,
Celebrate the life you've been given,
Tell friends and family to laugh not grieve,
Through life with death we are driven.

The doctor then said,
Are you sick in the head?
It's as if you don't even care,
I replied, we will all end up dead,
 We just don't know,
