"You better not come already"

Once I told death,

"You can never be ready"

It's conclusion read.

...

"No helmet, or no belt,

No safety or no gear,

A little bad for your health

I'll always come knocking.

...

Maybe medications can delay,

But nothing can stop me.

Oh! There's no re-play!

So why are you waiting?

...

I can come anytime

It won't even take a while

But then why would you spend

Hours worrying about me?

...

Trust me, I am not so bad.

Don't let the rumours fool you.

But you are already dead

If you let my fear overcome you.

...

So, don't waste your time,

Just live your life.

And know your days are numbered"

Death mumbled, I wondered.
