Life And Death



One second there's life then death.

Most go to black death graves.

Others go to shining light of freedom.

God has always taken the best.

To me my family is the best.

My grandfather always told me since a year before he died.

That he's going to die soon and for me to take care of the family.

Also to keep them together and a stong family nation.

Two years ago is when my grandfather died.

He might be gone but always,forever,his spirit is hear in my heart.
