What would life mean?

What would life mean?

A Poem by unclecharlie

This is my living will

No matter what this is what's real

If I can't live with out a machine

Then what could my life really mean

If with out them I will quickly die

Please unplug them and say Good Bye

Because logically my life is done

Living with tubes and all the noise won't be fun

And no matter how hard it may be

Please unplug them for me

Life has been good even at it's worst

I have been Blessed as much as cursed

Made friends in many places

Don't remember all the names but can see all the faces

I have seen Joy Love Laughter and Hate

And what I want isn't up for debate

Please remember after I am gone

May be not one thing from my life will carry on

But the ones I Loved know it all to well

I am begging for heaven but may end up in hell

Either way so many people and places I did touch

About some kind of return I didn't care much

I just want you to promise me

You'll unplug the machine and set me free

This my best friend is not pretend

Please hold my hand and kiss me in the end

Without you I couldn't have gotten this far

You know just exactly who you are

Please don't you shed not even one little tear

Unplug me and remember I'll always be near

Even though my body you won't see

In your time of need you can count on me

I will watch over you every day

Trying to be sure happy and safe you will stay

Now you know my final wish

Let it end with an I LOVE YOU , a Hug And Kiss!

So please don't let me down

In all these years your the best friend I could have ever found!

About
Here is just a little about me. I have lived a life of choices and disappointments. Never counting on anyone but myself. I have had lots of alone time and lots of hard knocks. What doesn't kill us wil.. more..
