As i lay in this hospital bed.
Thoughts of dying all in my head.
A legacy i will leave.
All the people i have freed.
Do not miss me when i am gone.
Do not dare to sing sad song.
I am where i belong.
Celebrate me and my life.
Live without fear and no strife.
Please tell my wife all the good i have done.
I feel myself coming undone.
What a web i have spun.
I feel everything.
No more numb.
I have the world under my thumb.
To death i will not succumb.
Death is but an old friend.
A new journey i will begin.
Come on baby lets go.
It is time to start the show.
The curtain closed on this chapter.
Now comes happily ever after.
As i lay in this bed.
I think of all the things left unsaid.
Death is not my foe.
There will be no tag on this toe.
Tell my wife i love her so.
Together forever i bestow.

I've heard of being dragged out of this life kicking and screaming but this seems an example of staying no matter what. A fun read
This is me on a Monday morning, dead to the world.
By Wednesday, still comatose.
Come Friday, totally resuscitated.
Okay, her mother is coming to stay for the weekend, just died.
