Some say death is cold
As the breath of life bids farewell
Some say death is warm
As they fly beyond the clouds
Some say death is a white
As they shut their eyes in peace
Some say death is dark
As they fall into the fathomless abyss
Some say death is vicious
As the flames of hell do consume
But death is what you make it
Joyous, peaceful, painful, or tormenting
It’s the choice you make
The single choice
Defining your perspective
