Waiting Room

A cold and empty waiting room
Painted the blandest shades of grey
Breathing heavy, a fast heart beat
No one knew what the doctor would say

As the door swung wide open
I heard the doctor say 'its time'
I walked up slowly, closed my eyes
I knew it wouldnt be 'just fine'

Thats the day that I decided
I had to live the best I could
So I did everything that I wanted
Everything I thought I should

I got in a plane and jumped
Falling though the bright blue sky
Taking in my appreciation
For the things that I passed by

I pulled the string of my parachute
And began to fall real slow
A feeling over powered me
One Im glad I got to know

I married my childhood sweetheart
Even though it wont last long
I got to dance our 'first dance'
While they played our 'first song'

So laugh and smile, while you can
Its stupid to spend your last days crying
And I hope one day, you get the chance
To live like you were dying
