Our Omega

I speak frequently of Destiny
and how we are to follow this path
yet we are given a choice in life
eternal happiness or unceasing wrath.

I was asked the other day
who am I to give advice?
I may be far from perfect
but at least I think twice

I do not know the hour of my death
whether here or on a battlefield
Yet how would life be worth living
if Death's secrets be revealed?

I do not know the secrets of life
nor what in this world I am to become
Yet I do know that in the end
everything you're here for need be done

Because one day will be our last
and we will take our last breath
Our heart will beat once more
yet what will there be left?

The memories of our loved ones
between the good and the rough
will reveal the impact we've made in life
yet a life never seems long enough.

They will write your name in stone
and mark the day your heart stopped
unfortunately Destiny only knows when
six feet under our coffin is dropped

For it is the mark we leave
and the everyday decisions
It is the path that we have chosen
which dictates the goodbye we are given

This is not just some rambling
or telling you how to get into Heaven
but more of saying my farewell
until together we smile once again

I do ask one thing of you
and that is to never look back
keep your eyes on your goals Pinchy
For you are right on track
