My Death Will Come With No Apology
In the silent halls where shadows dwell,
My footsteps echo, a whispered knell.
Through winding paths of life's design,
I walk with purpose, my end aligned.

No apologies in my final breath,
For I've lived fiercely, defying death.
In every laugh, in every tear,
I've embraced my journey without fear.

With each heartbeat, a testament strong,
To a life well-lived, to righting wrongs.
My legacy etched in deeds untold,
In stories whispered, in hearts consoled.

So when my time comes, as it must,
I'll face it boldly, without distrust.
For my death will come, a natural course,
With no apologies, no remorse.

In the symphony of life's grand play,
I've danced my part, night and day.
And when the curtain finally falls,
I'll greet my fate, no apologies at all.
