Death Becomes You

death is so…unbecoming –
if it isn’t planned right.
it takes you by surprise.
you can’t choose
     - how you look
     - where you are
     - who you’re with

ah, but if you could –
do your hair and your makeup perfectly
arrange yourself in an attractive manner
close your eyes softly
make your face serene…

all that’s left are the goodbyes.
take a deep breath,
let it all out,
let the plan take action.
goodbye all my loves…

guess that would be called suicide then, huh…
