Really bad poem

Dying is terrifying

What happens when you run out of time?

I can never get the right sign

clocks tick by counting down death

I never want to take my last breath

As the little hand winds around

I am so afraid to end up in the ground

My time is not up quite yet

I still have so much I regret

I live as if it was my last

My fear of death has me harassed

I want to be anything but dead

I hope I don’t die when I’m a newlywed

When you die you feel nothing

I guess that is when your heart stops pumping

No more breathing, no more life,

Please do not stab me with your pocketknife
